Number54

I just spoke to christian@carlsen, my alignment was pretty far off. And ride height too. I had -1.7/-1.6 camber front, -1.8/-2.0 camber rear, 118/123 ride height front, and 125/126 ride height rear.

The plan is to go with about -2.5 camber front (maybe he won't get it that much, but he does need shims) and -2.3 camber rear. Zero toe in the front and 2mm toe in at the back. Ride height is being dropped to 102mm front and 115mm rear, to get a 10mm rake.

Oil change done. Brake fluid flush done. Sway on soft. Wing at stock. No lip spoiler. Car will be aligned tomorrow. I'm ready...

I 'believe' I have an extra cup (motorsport) front spoiler -- or it might be stock spoiler. i'm certain i have one or the other and that it's painted silver.

PM me if interested. Parts located in storage in san bruno (94066).

mooty

patrick, you got storage in san bruno? i need space to hide things.

number 54, you need my extra set of rims so you can get R compounds

christian, as usual, is right on the ball.

Number54

@sfbimmer: PM'd

@mooty: Maybe... what wheels? I need to unload my Audi track wheels first though. It's getting tight in my garage.

Just saw mooty at his place today. Kinesis rims are in
perfect shape. Pm him. Mike

sfbimmer

i always buy mooty parts sight unseen... maybe because they are always mint, or maybe it's because i know where he lives

number54: pm'd you back. i'll be able to confirm later this afternoon if it's a cup or oem spoiler (i don't have hardware). drop me a PM with your cell.

hey mike: getting more comfortable with it... so far this yr i've gotten a few track days under the belt at LS and 1@Thunder. Definitely loving the challenge and nuances of this car. i'll need to get a ride in your car so you can really show me what this thing can do... when will you be at the track next? -patrick

Yo Patrick- great to here both u and your brother are running 6's- best car to learn on. As far as trackdays go I'm going this weekend at thill with Nasa for both days(PRC is running- great race to watch). Can't make it to NCRC since I work fri now : ( but 5/18 definitely works for me(got tues off). Mooty is going as well so should be a fun filled day with 6gt3's. I take it your brother is going too(heard he did well at ls)? Never ran with gglc- good outfit? Mike

sfbimmer

yeah i have a feeling i'll be sticking with this car for a while... so much to learn and car is so capable.

yeah sign up soon for the gglc event. recently there events hv been filling up fast. lotus club put on good loosely-organzied event... i've been to several of them over the yrs -- small groups, tons of track time - 3 run groups, but they allow you to run up and down grps, good price ($145 member/$165 non), open pass -adv grp, etc... you will definitely enjoy it. we need more pcars out there to attend these.

anyway, have fun at this w/e's nasa event!

mooty

^ three groups? they used to have "the fast group" and the "not so fast group".. that's the name they used.
