Default 996 Spec -- How low can you go?

I think this baby is about as low as it's going to get. Got it corner balanced and aligned, and set to 996 Cup Car ride-height. A little more than two weeks to the inaugural track session. Sure hope this works...

Looks really great, Mike.

Ok, enough of the pleasantries.... Wouldn't it be better for you to have an SUV suspension on your car?

The car looks terrific Mike

The team is proud of you.

Now don't do anything to embarrass us.

I think that is going to be a terrific class.

The grass blades between T5 & T6 just breathed a collective sigh of relief, particularly since I've got the car set at putting green height.

We'll miss you this go round. Hope you make it out in Oct.

Lookin' good Mikey! Get some screens in the bumper to protect those radiators before you go. Gravel & tire chunks can wreck havoc on those damn things
