From what I hear....you have the fastest time at Second creek. Too bad they will be closed now that I finally have coilovers. I will definately be competing in the circle drags in Erie next year. I may need your help setting up the coilovers....sounds like you have your dialed in.

Glad I won't be there for that mess! And I must be confused as to how it really works but doesn't the outside car have a bigger track to go around in a banked oval "circle drag"

They start you off like a street race. So you have a big advantage if you are the first car to the corner.....I have a link for a video

That's all about you...when you hit an oil cooler don't drive it another 5 miles! It's bad for the engine!

It's not the glasses I'm worried about it's the "U-Turns"? It's kinda one big U-turn...

True, but the downfall would be the big a$$ wall in place of said curb!

If I had paint that nice, I wouldn't be willing to race that close to either people who I can't trust.

Mike any time you need help with suspension setup I'd be glad to help! I just started working at a jigh performeance auto shop in Loveland, mostly european **** but we are expanding into other areas, but we can do suspension work on anything! I will be sending my used konis out to tripoint end of this month to get them revalved and I'm having them put 1000 lb springs on the front and 800 lb on the back. Then I will have the car corner balanced at the shop I'm working at so if you wanted to come by and see how it works or even get it corner balanced there I'd be happy to help. Corner balancing is one of the biggest things you can do to a track car, you know that. The shop name is: SCRPerformance. Give me a call if I can help bro. 407-973-0521

I will definately get a hold of you closer to spring time to get this done. I will also recommend you to everyone else as I know what you have done with your FD at Second Creek!
