First autocross event — any pointers appreciated! Video posted was the last and best run of the day. Had a better time each run out except for the fourth where I forgot to turn off traction control and it bogged off the start. Event was at Road America’s go-kart track.
Had a blast!! Hoping to do a couple more this season and go bigger for next year when I do some suspension mods over winter.

Here's my fastest left and right runs from the Packwood ProSolo a couple weeks ago. Constructive criticism is always welcome, thanks guys.

It may only be the difference of a 1/10th through there, but every 1/10th matters. It might also be interesting to see what the data says about the difference in your runs vs Glen's from the start to the end of the slalom. |

Here are my first two runs in my newly set-up STX BRZ (Could not get the GoPro to connect to the head unit and thanks to the iOS 13 update the GoPro app no longer works on my phone).
Current set-up: Feal 441+ coil-overs, swift springs Megan Front sway bar SPC rear lower control arm Momentum Intake Perrin Crank pulley HKS EL Header Custom 2.5" exhaust from the header back OFT Stage 2+ tune (Optimized by me) Rota Grid 17x9 +35 wheels RE-71r's (First event on these tires, love Rivals, these are MEH. Too noisy) Front Pressure(Starting): 30psi Rear Pressure (Starting): 28psi Alignment is as follows: Front: Camber:-2.1 degrees negative Caster: +6.5 Toe: 1/16" Toe-out Rear: Camber: -1.5 degrees negative Toe: 1/16" Toe-in Car was pushy and would transition to oversteer. Between these runs I adjusted the front struts which made the push a little better, but not cured. This made the second run very loose, I adjusted the rear shocks and dialed the car in as much as I could, but I think I need front camber bolts to get more front camber. With more front camber, I can then dial in more rear camber (Limited because of front camber). Thoughts?

Yes more camber, wouldn't go any less than -3F/-2R, if the stones are fresh they need to scrub in a bit so they'll get better imho, looks like you've got a good starting point.

I am hoping I can get closer to -3.2 in the front with the camber bolts and be able to back off the camber plates between events. Any idea how adjusting the camber plates affects toe? I also plan to remove the camber plate bolts and replace them with studs and a nut. I think this will be more reliable when I start adjusting them before and after events.

Not sure the magnitude of toe change, it certainly happens I just haven't measured in years, but I've been dailying -4 for the past year, you can grab some toe plates to check.

I've measured a 2mm gain of toe in going from camber plates at zero and ~ -2.2 of camber to maxing out the camber plates and getting up to ~ -3.2 of camber. YMMV. |

I just learned about track addict last autocross so here is my first video with it. It helped me see corners i could take faster, but it clearly didnt help my terrible line.
[ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBqm3nACxA0[/ame] [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9pGn8dxVxE[/ame] honestly i think i just need to grow more balls and work on better lines. i knocked a second and a half off just noticing i wasnt on the gas or brakes a ton Last edited by Breadman; 10-12-2019 at 09:22 PM. |
