when i was in school we had DARE. "Nope to dope and ugh to drugs"
Besides, when Matt can do a 158 in his BOXSTER, and Dan can do low 150s on NT01... i 'know' there is time on the table with the NT01.
These cars are expensive enough to track, i go hoosiers i 3x my running costs chasing lap times.

ok, am I voice of reason? no, not really hahahaha, especially spending this kinda coin on shocks.

@cosmos: shocks are already sold to another customer at the shop, sorry.

That's just evil. Can't tell you how many times shops offered me free slicks, hahaha... the car is going to feel like it running on crazy glue with these shocks alone already.

I remember this. He corded his slicks and then proceeded to put down a faster lap on beat up NT01s...crazy!

I'm with mooty and Trojan, however...R7s with the new dampers for the win .

They have on several customer cars that see lots of track + street and the setup is very supple and feels great.

Need all advantage I can get to keep up with the fast driven GT4s

I'm not into deviated stitching but I do feel the shocks should match the wheels.


What is the spring rates on the BBI setup compared to the stock Ohlins R&T?

I can show you the way around in the 1:50s land but it's pretty brutal - in the Boxster I hump the truck stop berm and basically fly over it / have zero empathy for the car whatsoever

In the RS I just say no to berms / give lots of empathy
