Im coming down with steve mass but i wont have my car done by then well i might have it done but wont be tuned til the 22nd. Im going out to Full blown in minnesota to get tuned then heading over to USAIR for that two day event.

Ok, starting to get a feel for the car. Just started feeling her out on the street, but starting to get the hang of it. Can't wait to hit the track.

One thing I noticed on the stock car is that trail braking yields absolutely no oversteer for me.
Not a fan. Don't know about you, but I like my car to oversteer under braking.
Need a lot more ebrake than I usually care to use.

Anyone done any mods to change this behavior?

Thicker rear sway

or more rear tyre psi

or two way

or all

Perrin has a boat load of options for rear sways. I was contemplating the 19 mm, but am a little worried it might be to drastic a step up from stock, especially when combined with stiffer than stock sprung coils.

Decisions, decisions...

Get a whiteline adjustable one, so you can play around with it.

You just look over at your friend and ask him why he wasn't able to avoid.

There is nothing to do, it's part of the game, if you are not able to take that risk, don't drift.

All the perrin units are adjustable as well.
They have em from anywhere around 100% factory to 1500% or so.
(Split over 4 different sway bars)

Buddy made a mistake and straighten up. We where on snow, and he T-boned me. His mistake was trying to anticipate my move, when the first rule when you are tandeming, is to follow the guy in front and don't anticipate too much.

180 degree 2nd gear left hander. First time full lock.
Felt really, really good

This car is really growing on me.

Tried throwing on some sacrificial 15" Jetta wheels, but the rim touches the caliper. Meh
Need another option for throw away meats.

Did some driving yesterday.

Still all about this thing. Need to figure out a better place to mount my gopro though.
