Yes that's what I meant, that would be fun!

dvsidboy · 05-10-2014, 02:02 PM

I am out, we launch our new brand that day and I drew the short straw to man the command center.

But I would be going to the PCA event, need to hold my place in points.

I am coming for you on Sunday. Ben and I have put a target on you back.

My wife and daughter let me out of my parental duties for the weekend.

Who is driving up the day of the event?

stockysnail · 05-13-2014, 05:45 PM

Only Kohei and I are on the registered list on motorsportreg. Where is everyone else at? Come on guys it's cheap and fun!

Andrew025 · 05-14-2014, 02:39 AM

I don't know how they managed it, but damn near every event lands on my long week at work.
Oh well, at least I'm making it to the one in June for sure.

I'll likely be down for the Saturday test and tune day. I need to figure out how to drive the car all over again, just got aligned and the front end feels totally different (bites a WHOLE lot harder) with an extra 3 deg of front camber.

Your tires won't last long with that much camber!

My experience has been that camber itself does not affect wear nearly as much as toe changes that accompany camber changes (that many "stance" folk fail to account for). I don't really expect 3.1 deg per side with 0 toe to be that bad, but we'll see.

TRUTH. I have been at 3 degrees for sometime now and nothing drastic happening.

I will say that much camber up front I think is overkill for Autocross, I am actually dialing mine back into the 2s.

Josh, find a good place to eat around your neighborhood and I will meet you there Friday evening before we take off to Astoria.

I'd say we should go hit up some bars in Astoria on Friday night.
