After we got home from Good Guys, our friend Amanda Hitt sent me these pictures she took during the event.
Yesterday I ran back up to the storage unit just to see if one of the front sway bar end links was broken or a front bushing mount was loose again. The last time Barney leaned like this in a corner was when the front bar was unhooked. Everything seemed to be in order...
I guess it is just a testament of how much more force is put on the suspension on this type of course. Now I really wish I would have run Solostorm for at least a couple runs just to see what kind of G forces were going on.
Top speeds for me were around 50 mph right up until the brakes were slammed on and two turns of the steering wheel were thrown at the car to get it turned around. There was nothing smooth about it what so ever, this is what was needed to get around the course fast.
One has to wonder just how much faster the car would have been had it not been riding on the rockers mid turn?
