Tweaked some suspension settings today to prep for some faster lap times found a couple of things that were hampering my driving. That's all fixed but the QuickJack sprung a leak so I can't get it down...LOL

Bummer about the QuickJack. Unfortunately you're not the first one I've heard of failing.
What suspension settings did you change?

Reset the Buddy Club rear lower control arms for more camber, adjusted coil over height to compensate for the tire rub I was getting from the downforce created by the Nine Lives Racing Big Wang and the grip of the Hoosiers!

Set a new PB at Sebring before these changes, looking to get into the 2:36's

One day my FR-S will get to the track. It'll be heavy and lack aero though. So I'll just crash your ass so I can win the HPDE trophy.
