Rayspeed springs: red/f...white/r
shocks outer hole on tower front
second to outer hole on rear tower.
no spacers under front arms.


if you have a good set-up for rubber tires on Carpet ...please let me know so I don't spend hours trying to get the car dialed...
Remind me tomorrow for an exact setup. I think a good rubber tire setup is the same as foam but drop down 20 wts in oil and it should be right on. I use 100wt with foams and I use 80wt with rubber tires and it handled good. Night, I'm hitting the sack, got to be up real early.

gotta do some last minute shopping... my co-workers gave me gifts today..and I wasn't planning on giving mine 'til tommorrow...
like a little kid...just had to take a peek at what they gave me....
so to say the least... didn't want to look cheap with the stuff I already purchased... just gotta add a few extra nick-nacks...
I guess it's for the better...the weather outside is horrible...winter rain storm coming through
Hopefully Saturday I can try to hit the track...

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!!!
