Nope, just a little on the bumper tab out back

Specifically, regarding camber:



I like the red tails against the red paint.

Given that, surely you'd have learned by now that's not the fastest way around a track. As an HPDE instructor, I fail to see the point in drifting at track days that aren't dedicated to drifting, but whatever floats your boat. Just trying to help in case you ever wanted to improve your lap times instead of sliding around for fun, which I totally support either way, just not at normal track days where performance driving is the focus.

Agreed! This one will look good sideways as a dedicated street/drift setup.

I don't care what the fastest way around the track is. I'll be drifting at drift days, when did I ever express any interest or plans to go to a normal track day?

In your coilover install thread I assumed you meant the car would see normal track days as well. I still need to check out a drift day with my stock wheels and tires so I can learn the illest way around a track. Looking forward to seeing more pics.
