Xida testing at Streets of Willow a few weeks ago. 1:23.475 CCW. Apparently it's a new N/A 86 lap record by about 4 seconds. We were working through spring combos for the Street spring pack and also the Race spring pack. This video is on 500/500 rates, 22mm fsb, OEM rsb. 17x9 6UL 255/40 RE71R. About 95° and very windy so not great conditions for going fast. That's Emilio driving.
A few more tests to run, one more trip to the track. So far, Race spring pack is looking like 500/500. Street looking like 175/150 which could be run with stock sway bars. Both packs could still change before production. Loving the ride on the Street around town. Doesn't even feel like an 86, so plush. Still did 1:27's on the Street springs and 225 Conti ECS on 17x8 6UL. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_TxyL4XNRs[/ame]

Sweet driving!! I saw a few mentions of the weight that is being reduced by various parts. What's the current weight of the car without a driver, and how much gas is that with at this point?

I think it is about 2580 lbs dry without driver. Probably a shade over 2800 in the video. Our car will fuel starve at Max g unless it has nearly a half a tank.

These are not generic Chinese mystery meat coilovers. Xidas are Pro motorsports level like Penske,Ohlins or Multimatic. So yes they will be significantly over 2K for the set.

Even for the street set? So for my comparison, better than a KW V3?

Xidas are the exact same hardware used in pro motorsports. Fixed length, 46mm piston alloy monotube, inverted strut. Not just the same brand, but the same shock. Blancpain GT World Challenge, FIA GT, IMSA (Weathertech), Pirelli World Challenge cars using the same shocks. Another world from the shocks you might be used to comparing.

Would love to hear about what you've done to reduce weight. Unless I've missed a post in this thread?

The KW V3 is hardly the standard for a high performance shock. They're just expensive.
