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!
