Updating the OPTIMA Batteries OneLapCamaro for 2011 - Getting Down to Business

[James OLC]

We’ll update things as they come but to start things off we got the ball rolling with RideTech just before Christmas, sending them our old shocks for dynoing and looking for a base line with their shocks.

I’ll try to post all the graphs but here you can see a comparison of the old shocks and the new RideTechs and the range between full stiff and full soft. We had been running at the very soft end and had no more adjustment.



You can see that the RideTech shocks are quite a bit softer than the old shocks so a spring change is in order. We’re increasing the coil rates by 100 pounds up front and that should give us something that is not too far out from where we were. One of our goals was soften things up so we’re well on our way.
