If you were local I would just give you mine since I can't use it anymore because of brakes, etc.

This is by no means any slam or negative commentary on their car or their company. I think what they've built looks amazing. I would love to try one out.

However, using this pic from their...

Definitely pull the measurements if you don't mind. I'm curious now too.

Yeah, the car rides great on the track. It just feels planted without feeling like I'm in a shopping cart on pavement. :D

I run Shaftworks and Jon Lugod said set them so the pinch welds are 5.5" of the ground. That's definitely higher than they were when I had Feals. The car works great like that though.

First, this is a tragedy. Losing our lives in this sport isn't worth it. I know this was accidental but it definitely makes you think.

That being said, I honestly didn't pick up on the car model...

I went up to 8k front 9k rear for my Verus UCW. I was also told that there are road racers that run 11k/12k as well.

Washer Fluid Spray - Low Flow

I feel stupid for posting this but the solution is escaping me.

Running the washer on the windshield results in a spray that's about 6" or so out the nozzles.

So, you're trying to sell a set of used tires (doesn't matter if they only have 500 miles on them, they are used) that cost $640+tax on Tire Rack with a set of stock wheels for $1300?

Good luck...

Well, I think it's a story of tradeoffs. The lower viscosity oils are more "slippery" apparently which gives the appropriate amount of lubrication. A thicker oil may offer more "cushion" and may...

What did you end up doing? I ask because I just did the UCW wing and splitter from Verus. I'm running Shaftworks USA coilovers with 6k/9k springs and all spherical bearinigs. I'm hoping that's enough.

Database errors aren't something that a forum admin can handle. They are a back end problem and the hosting provider has to fix them. The forum admins don't have access to the back end of the site.
