Here's a vid from the PCA event. Sorta sucks but it's the only one.

Power probably wasn't more than 330 (boost was low/leaky manifold) but the car still managed a 2.075 as recorded by Pete holding his AIM solo.

Pete will hopefully upload his. He had two camera's going and it's pretty cool.

Gosh I wished my car would handle the way yours does at those speeds Fritz. Would you mind sharing your suspension/wheel setup?

I just had the car aligned and corner balanced so it's feeling pretty good

One problem I noticed is the left rear is too low so it's rubbing at mid corner especially t17 causing some over steer so I'll probably spin each coilover up a turn which will take out a little camber and ad toe but I don't think it will hurt much because the car is set up pretty aggressively.

FRONT 2.2 camber and a little bit of toe (no more than 1/16 total/both sides combined) 5.5 caster REAR 2 camber zero toe

Susp is 7 years old (Tein Super Rs) and is starting to show it's age and the right rear is probably damaged from the Brent hit last year (I straightened it but it feels funny) so I plan to replace that soon with the exact same thing and have the old stuff rebuilt. The spring rates are around 800 pounds (16kg) front and rear. I have the fronts set in the middle and the rears set 4 up from soft or 1/4 stiff they are 16 way adj shocks. I plan to run some stickier tires this year and turn the boost up a little (i have stock primaries and 1200 secondaries/stock map so power is limited to about 375) and run in TTU but I won't compete at all it's a very competitive class in NASA mid atlantic right now with 4 or more TT cars running sub 2 laps at VIR. I'll shoot for a 2 flat lap and if I break 2 minutes I'll be ecstatic.

Front sway bar is a tri point (the thick one) set in the middle and the rear bar is an r1 bar slightly thicker than all the other FD bars including the R2. Front bar has adj links and the bar is nice and flat when the car is loaded which is hard to do if you have the fancy aluminum mounts (i forget there name) so I go with the latest stock mounts which are upgrades from the original with the RB front brace and have now issues with this setup at all and it's been 7 years.

GTC rear wing which works OK but I could use a bigger wing for sure. GTC front bumper and I need a splitter. Just added a REA knock off rear diffuser which looks cool but probably isn't helping much.

275 40 17 C51 Hankooks and will try the softer C71s. Hoosiers are too expensive 318 versus 220 for the Hankooks. Height is approx 25.5 inches (ground to fender) which is about as low as I can go with the tall radius wheels.

Fritz would you recommend that much camber for an FD wanting to track but still running a street tire? RS-3, AD08, etc?

Nope go 1.5f and 1r

If you're running really fat tires (like 285s) go 1.2 or 1.3 front.
