I am curious to what kind of natural frequencies you guys are shooting for in BSP trim?

 

900 lbs springs is in the 2.7X range (front) 800 LBS springs is in the 2.6X range (rear), I'd say somewhere around there. Alot of people in STR ran around 900F/800R.

I'd have to look at my spreadsheet to give you exact numbers but thats ballpark.

 

In my opinion, by the time the hs0 is actually faster then the base a6, there needs to be a fair amount of standing water. With that said, i would not recommend wider then 225. Also as a note, many have come across the idea that a heavier wheel is better in the wet, It also provides a much larger flywheel effect for the brakes to slow consistently and not freak out in to abs ice mode... just my opinion / observation

 

Interesting. Didn't think of it that way.

 

Do Hoosier H2Os need to be heat cycled before competition like normal R-comps?

 

IMO, A6's are at their best with stickers on them...

 

2.7 seems high for those spring rates. Can you give me some example corner weights for a 2500-2600lb s2000?

 

"Assuming" each corner weights the same, which isn't exactly true but whatever.

Heres some corner weights of my car with 150LBS in the driver seat to simulate me..



From my spread sheet:

2750 LBS car 2600 plus my 150 lbs ass.

Front MR .7, rear MR .67

Springs:900F/800R

Wheel rate: 441F/359.12R

NF: 2.719F/2.454R

 

Do you have the actual LF, RF, LR, RR weights with and without you?
