What I thought was odd was how tail-happy the BRZ was vs. the FRS. Exact same bar/tire combo, alignment, and very similar pressures front and rear. Weight probably about the same -- I had stock wheels but an exhaust cutoff that evened things out. Watering the Dunlops to the point they were cool to the touch wound up being critical -- we left them warm (not hot) and sticky on the East course, and the car never turned in the way it did on the West, when we sprayed after every run. |

The Speed Factory car, Jeremy's, I believe he hold me he's literally stock, not even crash bolts, just Star spec tires.

Congrats Trevor Des and John on great showings in the inaugural RTR championship!
Trevor, I came by and introduced myself on Wednesday, I could see you guys were busy after John had just arrived so I didn't stick around to chat long. Tim |

Correct, our car only had our V1 exhaust, aFe drop in, 225 Star Specs.
We ended up getting the wrong crash bolts from Subaru on Tuesday the day before we left so no alignment for us. Didn't get time to do a sway bar either unfortunately with everything else going on. Car definitely needs one though. Look forward to next season, and continuing to chat with everyone here.  -Jeremy |

No video, but here's a photo of my co-driver at the top of the East course. I told him to hold his foot to the floor no matter what or he was a p*ssy.
