Default STR in Bly'ville!

Wow, so 22 folks are signed up for STR at a relatively low turn out event. That's pretty awesome. Notibly, Marc P. looks like he'll be joining the ranks! That's cool.

So, over the span of the next three evenings I have a lot to do. Before work this morning, I bolted up my Enkeis to scrub the sticker Dunlops in some. Next I have to roll the fenders, install springs and lower the car and do a home alignment. Working in the parking garage at work sucks... maybe as much as working in front of my rented storage facility.

Lastnight, I had a crazy idea to run my car as is (B-stock) but with the tires and wheels and see what needs addressing. But... I'm second guessing that and will probably end up installing the springs I happen to have which will put the set up at 800 fronts and 750 rears. That's a bit more aggressive than I have a hunch I will need in the rear but maybe it's better than stock springs.

Anyway, see ya'll there! I'm excited to see what happens.

Install the springs! We all know you like working on the car last minute! I plan to be there in STR ... unless Jadrice decides to come.

Yeah, springs are going in. Seems like a waste of an event otherwise.

You can try run 1 with one end link on the rear bar disconnected. If balance is good then you can quickly take the bar off all together and save weight. If to pushy just re-connect it. It seems like AP1s seem to like running no rear bar more then the AP2s.
