Did you get bumped at the beginning of the first vid (on that first turn)?

Nope. The tack has a transition from banking to flat that can be rather abrupt and the car is always on the edge there plus you need brake when still turning just after that. Just a little too much on cold tires on a dirty line.

Do you have a build thread on your car? A spec car looks interesting to me.

No I don't. I built my car starting in summer 2000 and it was pretty much done by Jan 2003. It was activly raced and tracked start october 2000 and the final tweaks to 944 spec race prep were completed between events.

Since 2003 the car has run the same spring rates and same basic hp. However there have been a number of tweaks over the years.

944-spec.org has a website dedicated to the class. http://944spec.org

there we have a build forum. There are two active build being documented there.
http://944spec.org/944SPEC/forum/race-car-build

If you have any questions about the class let me know. Currently we have 3 cars/drivers in the build/driver development process. I expect them to be racing by sometime in 2011. That is in addtion to out 10 regulars in Az.
