You will find her at many open track days like at Willow Springs

She made many a Mustang owner jealous when we were out there with our Chivies

Ha ha. Well like Dave said, she attends a lot of track days with Extreme Speed Track Events.

Her name is Nicole Rayburn. She is a model and actress. Here is a pic for the viewing masses...

I have never wanted to be a rocker panel more in life than today!

did you ever end up fixing your suspension issue?, i remember you had started a post on pro-touring about understeer issues with suspension.

Nothing like taking a running and driving car and making it non-driveable. LOL

Don't remind me

I got to drive it one last time yesterday. I picked the car up from Pomona Valley Customs who did the tub work. Rather than trailer it home I decided to get my redneck on and drove it with no rear shocks. Actually wasn't a big deal to drive without shocks but I'd never want to do a lot of cornering that way.

TCI parts are supposed to be ready the end of this week I think. I may start further disassembling the car this weekend.

Fix? No. The addition of an adjustable rear sway bar did help. It didn't make me significantly faster or significantly reduce pushing in slower speed tight corners like you find on an autocross. However, higher speed corners it made a signifcant difference and overall made the car a lot more fun on the road course.

I really wanted to pursue fitting a larger tire up front which led me down the path of the TCI camaro subframe. Things kind of snowballed from there...
