You guys were totally right about the taller rear shocks! What a difference. So I've been averaging 37.5 sec laps with a 36.3 as my fastest. This has gone on for 2-3 races. First lap out I put down a 34.5 with a 36.0 average for my first qualifier. I'm still in the middle of the Bmain, but we had a lot of fast guys that I haven't seen before this week and I'm really happy with the improvement. Feels like the car has a lot more in it now and no hinderance. It's all down to my driving to get that extra second I need for the A's and tighten up my averages.

Thanks guys!

does any manufacturer make a metal or carbon diff cover for the ve8?
I came across this one that was made out of a carbon eb48 shock tower. Has anyone done something similar to this?
