SO i went to my first ever auto-x with my bone stock AP1 today and lets just say it was one of the best days of my life! I'm broke so i don't have many options to modify but i would like to do an alignment but i can only find alignments for cars that are running in B stock. What specs should a stock AP1 set to?
Thanks in advance.

 

Well... if you have a stock AP1 (or any stock s2k) you are in B Stock and thus should use the B Stock FAQ as your starting point.

 

but isn't that for a car running racing slicks, a front sway bar and coilovers?

 

Even on street tires, the AP1s handle much better with a bigger front bar. Coilovers aren't allowed in stock class and yes, most run slicks on a National level. Locally, I run STR on RS3s and keep the same setup I use for my Hoosiers at National events.

OK thanks! So you would recommend specs similar to the ones listed in the BS setup guide?

 

I would recommend maximum negative front camber, about 0.4 degrees more negative camber for the rear, zero front toe, and the factory recommended rear toe, if you are running the stock front swaybar. Less rear toe-in if you have a stiffer front swaybar. Same whether you're on street tires or DOT competition tires.

 

sounds great thanks alot
