Are you racing the car this Sunday at club day?

Are you running both Touring and 1/8th at the State Titles? If so, start saving

Did u just ring?

Why are people so unkind?

i had the same engine in my car (same car) longer header (tonne of bottom end) and using the tourer body managed constant 13 laps BUT could have gotten 14 but SOMEONE!! (not naming any names, you know who you are ) knocked of the track, losing heaps of time and only managed 13. its going to be very tough to squeeze out 14 with the motor you have, you will definately have to upgrade. i put the picco back in, ive decided to do a little "mod-ifi-cations" if it dies........it dies, i'm waiting for the 5 port rossi

my engine is alot quicker now that you leaned the top end. all i have to do is cure the understeering and i'll be fine. i'm pritty sure that with a perfect run and the understeering cured i can do 14. (low end is running a little rich as well!)

what springs do you run at the front dave? sway bar? like i said, i wanna get rid of the understeering. (all stock grp settings).

Try softer front spring, stiffer rear spring, less rear toe, stiffer rear anti-roll bar, softer front anti roll bar, more castor, add more droop and the list goes on and on

The thicker the rear (with the one-way combo), you do tend to lose rear traction. Also, you'll need to steer with the throttle alot more.

Changing diff oil's should be on the bottom of your tuning Tom. Stick to the basic, then fine tune it from there.

True just depends how bad its understeering
