If you want to separate the stuff, I'd be interested in the front camber plates.

Martin, what kind of suspension will you be installing?

Cool For the present time....

I want to sell the suspension parts as a package deal. Thanks for your interest.

Smile New suspension under consideration...

I am going to the Bilstein HDs with M030 (RoW) springs, 22mm front bar, 21 mm rear bar with Tarett Engineering drop links and the front shock towers slotted to give me - 2.5 degrees of negative camber.

This allows me to run in Improved Class...a much better fit for a car that weighs about 3,400 Lbs with driver, gas, etc.....

Martin: What are you doing going to LI?
I plan on getting camber plates and going to LP so I can play with you. Maybe I should stay in LI.
LI will be fun though because of the caymans.
Very unfair to us but I love giving those damn crocs a spanking on the track.

Wow, I never realized that you weigh north of 300 lbs.

Am I the only one who did that math??

Default South of 300, just a bit...

But the 3400 weight is with 1/2 tank of gas, DAS-sport bar, stock passenger seat, spare tire and tool kit in car and my fat ***. I haven't hit 300 yet...seen 265 though.

Nevernomind TheOtherEric, Martin. He looks like he's as light as a Formula 1 jockey.

Cool What AM I doing???

"Martin: What are you doing going to LI? I plan on getting camber plates and going to LP so I can play with you. Maybe I should stay in LI. LI will be fun though because of the caymans. Very unfair to us but I love giving those damn crocs a spanking on the track."

I want to go to LI, and due to the weight of the car, 3400 Lbs, I can slip into V4 class. V4 R6....now that would be fun. Will I actually do it? Maybe....it is the first of the year (coming soon); I always get the itch to make changes for the new race year.


R5 (KP, LI, MI, V3) I am here now for racing; this sucks
R6 (JP, KI, V4) There could be some cripples here to pick off!

A well driven LP Cayman is going to be hard to beat....I am going to see about doing just that this weekend at WSIR, you going?

Sadly, that's about all I have in common with F1 drivers.

Martin- looking forward to hearing how the new setup compares to PSS9's. Somebody will be getting a really good deal on these used parts!

And obviously I was just messing with ya. Is your car really 3150 lbs without driver? That still seems really high.
