Where's Austin this weekend...not sure, but there is next Sunday's race:). Today was interesting with the rain and all, and how much of a difference 1psi made on my last run for my rear tires...I knew at launch I was too low bouncing around like I did on the sweeper at the start. Never the less, I certainly will be investing in the bump steer kit and Koni's in the rear next year, maybe coil over's...fronts are fine:). Next set of tires will be 245 back and 225 front...then consider more power, but the handling/tracking will make huge improvements. Zack is a great guy with a great car...we will stay in touch and asked him to start posting with us again, and plan to gather a few of us for a Victoria race weekend with him...who's up for that?. They apparently have 20-30 auto cross events a year in Victoria, would be fun:). Here a quick vid of my runs: Edited by Bassman |

Wow I would get so lost on that AutoX setup let alone the wet conditions to throw in the mix. I'd definately be in for some runs out to Victoria. I've seen some of Zac's AutoX videos and they look pretty cool. Zac, let's see some video of your Kuhmo runs! |

Hey everybody. The KSC was a pretty cool event. I was expecting the facility to be a little larger like boundary bay was but it was still a great time. I think i'm going to be changing the front alignment around somewhat now. I was running -1.75* camber 9.5* caster and 1/8" toe in. I think i'm going to set it up with -1.25 to -1.5* camber, 5* caster and 1/8" toe out. Anyway here's the only video i got from the event (my memory card got full). Hopefully some of you guys will make it out for an event over here this year or next year. |

Hey Zac, Great seeing a post from ya:). You had to leave my commentary on that vid didn't ya...lol, but I watched what seemed to be a run from the past when you had your 4.9 and who ever was with you said the same thing about the bottom end power you have...must be nice with the power steering also:). I had to pull my alignment (1 of 4 done...lol), I am currently at -0.75 camber, 5.75 caster left & 4.32 right (which pisses me off), and 1/16 toe on the front. Rear -1.33 camber with -1/16 toe...so I have some work to do also:). I was looking at the Victoria schedule, I know there are a few of us that will do a Island trip so we will keep in touch.
