na, just F%*%*g with ya all.. lol. Both of us were running Nitto NT05 tires, BB's had minimal wear... and mine were bald. No kidden. My back tires were eventually bald at the end of the day. I'm Sure Cris will chim in about the final adjustments (I know he was planning to spend time with family today). But let me tell ya, that car is getting fast and I'm assuming it has more in it. |

Here is a little recap of the testing & tuning that we went thru this week… Basically I just sat down & listened to everything David & Mary were telling.. I just followed their lead & did as I was asked on all the suspension tuning of the car.. I was calling David & getting spring rates they wanted to see on the car, setting the shocks to how Mary wanted the car to set in a corner, setting the camber to what they thought worked the best.. I just did exactly what they told me to do.. Plus the owner the car right before I ship it out.. He said do whatever it takes to shake that car out! Rent a track get the Pozzi’s in.. Buy springs, change the steering wheel, & etc. All I said I will get err done! As long as I don’t lose my ride height!
We put a RacePak on the car to get some reading on what the car was doing.. Mary was consistently pulling 1 G lateral loads on the car both ways.. Maybe David will post that graph later.. Another thing that we did was take pictures of the car as it was being tested & tuned… Casey got some great pics of the car to observe how the car was leaning & watching the tire contact patch to the pavement… I will just post random pics of that so that you guys can see what the car was going! http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0110.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0112.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0064.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0001.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0021.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0025.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0028.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0024.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0038.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0073.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0074.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0080.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0078.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0090.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0098.jpg |

Car looks great out there! I never noticed before how tight all the gaps are on that thing! I must have been caught up in all the killer details! Love this car!! :hail:

That was great...
Mary drives crazy fast....sweet.. I am looking to go to an event at a Track like that in the Bay Area. An airport type autocross. Someone PM me and let me know... Sacramento would be ok.. My Car is ready.. |
A most excellent day and I'm very happy with the way this car responded to the changes we did. Have to say the most significant one was the change of brake pad friction material and man, those Wilwood stoppers sure work good. Having the right stuff at the calipers is huge.
Thanks to Cris and the owner of the Camaro for entrusting this part of the development to me and there's still more tricks in the bag that when done, will get this car even better. Mary Pozzi |
