Very happy where the car is after two test weekends. Found out the first weekend that the engine mount was bad, replaced it at the track Sunday morning. Car is very neutral, I was concerned about the oversteer that everyone talks about, but with my setup, it's not tail happy at all. Boosted brakes are actually too boosted in my opinion (I'm coming from a dual master cylinder race car), but car is very stable under hard braking. I have a front end vibration at speed that I will need to diagnose, but other than that, very happy.

I would look at your front wheel bearings, but of course it could be an out of balance wheel, etc..

I installed four new bearings during the build, less than 4 hours of use at this point. I'm rotating tires this weekend and will check balance prior to the swap to see if that was the problem.

Will start working on the livery this weekend, new vinyl cutter arrives today.

Just a few more items and it will pass race inspection, certainly ready for more testing (RA in 10 days). Livery is just about done, QR codes work.
