Default Event #3 - autocross

I ran event 3 today and the car was better than it ever has been. I did a lot of mods over the winter and am very pleased they have paid off. The car was a tad softer and much easier to control than it ever has been. The fear of it jumping up and trying to kill you is gone. It will still get out of control but it now is so much easier to get back. The NT01's do not quite have the ultimate grip of my old R-comps, but now that I have found some balance I can really push the car to the limit without the fear of it biting me. What a cool feeling to have found the sweet spot.....finally!!!! Today was my 4th best pax finish ever. The other 3 were all on R-comps. Rear tires were rolling over pretty far and needed more air. I never touched them though as the car was so good....I did not want to ruin a good thing.

Here is my current setup: Springs 350F/250R, FFR Konis all set at min rebound, big front swaybar, no rear bar, NT01 275F/315R, 28 psi F / 25 psi R (set cold), LS1/T56 moved 3" forward of stock, 1/4 tank of gas, custom 3.5" exhaust (sounds awesome!).

Here is a video of my fastest run of the day. I still made a few mistakes and could have been faster.

Also had a real tank slapper on run #3. Here is an external view from grid and an in car video of the same run.
