I just got back from Roebling with Seat-Time. I changed front springs to 450 and the rear to 350. I still have a lot of understeer. I will make another spring change before next month Barber event.

I drove my RA car today with slicks (Kuhmo V710's) for the first time. I had previously changed out the springs to 550 lb front, and 350 Lb rear. This set up was great. It stuck like nothing else. Was nice and neutral in all corners. I knocked 5 seconds off my previous time at Sandia MS. Today I ran several 1:31's, and 3 weeks ago all I could get was 1:36 on Pirelli rocks. The car corners flat, and turned in very well. I had great grip on the rear too. The lack of power (verses the Vette) makes it much easier to open up the throttle at apex.
My sway bar is still on the soft setting. I may try the hard setting, just to see the difference.
First race is second week in April. I've got Hoosiers Cups for that event. I'm wishing it could be tomorrow.
More later...
