First time out this year, 2nd time With me driving this car.
First REAL test on the new suspension upgrades.

Had fun, 3 runs, Need New Tires, I think i have to replace a brand new front right shock. Lakewood 90/10 Just put on March.

Car picked up in the 60 foot by 2 tenths.......:thumbsup:
Et Slowed down by 2 tenths as well.......:confused::confused:


The winter upgrades definatly helped with weight transfer.
I will shop for new tires tonight and order in the AM.(there goes uncle sams ****$ donation to me.)

Small and short video

Notice the new stance on the car with the shock prob...?

Cool videos, glad you guys didn't get rained on and off all day like the Pittsburgh area. Almost looks like your car pushes to the left just a bit off the line.

Rained a little bit on the way home....

Yes the car did push or wiggled, spun....something wasnt normal.
I blamed it on the tires, they spun alot more today than they ever have.
