Well, I made it out sunday for another successful autocross.

3 guys from the PT world made it out there. Jay Bittle from JBA brought out two mustangs. It was a good turn out on sunday. My upgrades were better. The trans stayed cool and being able to monitor the engine oil temp was nice. The stiffer springs helped on the longer sweepers by reducing body roll. I think a bigger sway bar is next. The falken tires were not good cold. That is my only complaint.

Saturday had some crazy dips and a few cars did not survive. I am glad I didnt make it out on saturday.

I will post some videos tonight. I got 7 runs.

I need a bigger sway bar to reduce body roll. I think there is some daylight on the inside tire acclerating out of a turn.

Found out I have some slop in my low friction ball joints. Too much slop for me, time for upgrades. I will be going to a sperical bering instead and have some roll center and camber gain adjustments. But this change will put out for GG del mar.
