Fyi to anyone who owns the hr coilover kit the ksport top hats fit perfectly but you'll needto swap the bearings. A good spring size is 6-7 inches 8 will fit but youll have no adjustment for lowering.

Jesus you are correct. I don't keep up to date tabs on SD unless I'm Jonesing for another hit of the ax crack pipe.
Here is the SD schedule for the rest of the year. http://www.sdr-scca.com/solo2/schedule/ |

Just an fyi if you have not run in SD before, 93db @ 50' is the sound limit, if your car is loud your event will be short lived. Make any necessary adjustments beforehand.

Sounds like a challenging day. The Camarillo Airport autocross is wicked tight like that also. I think I've learned the most when I lost traction/control over the car.
"If you don't go over the line, you don't know where the line is" -- just a thought and a quote from someone who is faster than me.

Ignore the template I forgot to change it from the last time it was used. (Not affiliated with Black Iron Racing.)
Gives you an idea of how rough this track was. I actually messed up the camber on my passenger wheel hitting a cone at some mph. I was running positive camber on that wheel and didn't even realize it till I came home. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS0B-...&feature=g-upl |
