I was thinking earlier myself but did not have time to look up the gens by year... it was noisy in the garage and I only got a minute to talk to the guy. I have a first gen, 1980 Lude myself.

You can barely get parts for anything that old, and it's NOT very sporty anymore. First gen Lude was just an Accord with a different body style

Have your friend get in touch with me via my Prelude web site

I would love to talk to another Prelude enthusiast who considers themselves obsessed

 

That's a lot of angle on that wing...I can almost guarantee you are stalling out the tip sections. Which wing is that?

I co-drive this one. Hopefully we'll see some of you at Topeka this year.

 

I <3 your alignment. something I still need to do but I'm hesitant because I still DD the car.

 

I have the same alignment on the car I drive on the street. It's the first thing I'd do to any S I own, and I wouldn't even consider leaving the stock alignment as is (Mostly because it's crap).

In short, do eeet!

 

heres my new set up.

 

No problem. I've also been using data logging to help convince me to decrease the angle of attack on my wing. I think too much angle is a common problem that people are running into without realizing it. It think it's a bit counterintuitive that the center section needs to be flat or even a positive angle relative to the ground, since its airflow is actually coming off the roof. It looks...uncomfortable, but it's faster!

 

kerryF, what tire sizes are you running?

 

We're running 245 A6s on all four corners. With the Gendron bar on full stiff, it works perfectly.
