I just received an announcement on our local PCA email list regarding the PCA Speed Festival at California Speedway this March:

http://www.pca.org/zone8/Z8SFest.htm


I've never run this track, and by the map

it looks like my 901 M-S-X setup, which works great at Laguna Seca, is going to top out pretty early.

Can anyone share their 914 experience on this track, top speed, and a recommended gear setup?

Thanks,

Greg

Here are my current alignment specs:


Corner Balance with driver:

Left Front: 480 Right Front: 480
Left Rear: 604 Right Rear: 596

Alignment:

Left Front: -2.2 Right Front: -2.2
Toe .12 .12


Left Rear: -2.8 Right Rear: -2.0
(turns out car was hit on right rear. found body work and this is all the neg camber we can get)
Toe .23 .23


Looking at my alignment sheet, this is actually from 4 years ago! Didn't realize until now my last setup was that long ago. But on the positive side.... sounds like the weight I've gained will help bias the weight to the left (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) so check that improvement as 'done'

I think I'll get my car re-aligned & corner balanced and work with my shop on the recommendations you listed.

Thanks!

Looking forward coming down south to a new track!
