As requested, here are some pics from the last track day where I ran some 225-45-15 Hoosiers that stuck nice but wore quick. I have a short 2mb video clip of that turn if anyone can host it. btw, I did end up passing that Porsche
Enjoy.

Looks like we got someone to host the clip.
Now...the clip is only 5 secs long of that turn in all the pics. Oh, and it's 5 megs not 2.

Thanks everyone for the compliments.

Nick, check my sig for suspension

oh nice. i just picked up the eibach ground control springs, but i still need the coilover perches. they were from a pro7 race car. thhe guy couldn't tell me the spring rates, but said there is only one spring rate used for racing????do yo know what that is?

nick1

oh, and im assuming you ave the rear sprpings with the 5 dead wound coils you are supposed to cut to ride height? how many coils did you cut?

FD Racer

My guess is that they are 155-175lb.

I'm not running the springs with the dead wound coils....The highest those come in is 200lb, and I wanted 250lb.
I'm running G-force "Red Dot" springs in the rear.

nick1

oh really...i thought they would be higher.....thanks for the info...i appreciate it

FD Racer

Thanks.
yeah I was surprised too. Keep in mind though that 225-45-15 is a rare size, only available in competition style tires. The common 225-50-15 would not fit nearly as well, if at all.

Truely awesome car, almost the exact setup I want, but I don't have quite a large enough budget so I have to compromise ... someday.

Thanks for hooking that up.

Thanks. I go with www.speedtrialusa.com and/or www.driving101.net, and the occasional drift practice day or things like Mazfest. How about you?






Thanks. That Porsche should of been faster, but I think he wasnt ready to commit to taking it that far. Funny story though....I'm on his *** threw the turns for the better part of two laps, but on the straights he had so much power that I couldnt pass. He finally realized he was holding me up and let me pass. After the session I go over to talk to him and we start talking about his car for a minute or two. So I ask how it's running in the heat (it was real hot that day) and he says to me..."the cars running fine, but too bad I just got my *** handed to me by the guy in the silver RX-7". I start to laugh, and tell him that is was me. He ended up being really cool and told me to keep bringing it on.

anyways, I run stock GSL-SE brakes with Hawk HP+ pads. I have no problem what soever at willow springs streets, but at Buttonwillow (the only other track I've been to) I wouldnt mind a little more.
