So, Evan and I are getting closer and closer to dialing in the car, but it still is a bit rear traction limited. We saw an improvement in predictability, but maybe not more absolute grip when moving from 225lb to 300lb springs. We certainly carried the inside front wheel less and it never snap oversteered...

I'm already very low in the rear, but could use some more camber I think. The Hoosier A7's love camber... I'm also considering a hair more toe in. I'm currently at about 1/8" total toe in and probably get a bit more.

Current basic setup:
Raised spindles - 19mm
Rebel Racing Front and Rear (teflon) bushings
Camber plates
21 mm torsion bars
21 mm front sway bar (set fairly stiff)
300lb rear springs
Koni Yellow rear shocks
Bilstein front shocks

Alignment:
Front:
2.2 degrees camber
6 degrees caster
0.13 degrees toe OUT
Rear:
2.4 degrees camber
0.13 degrees toe IN

I know this is a fairly unconventional set up, but it has been slowly built up and has proven itself to be VERY FAST in the rather large POC/PCA courses we have down here.

For example:

Is there anything I'm missing short of an LSD for picking up some rear grip?
