Nice stuff!

Major understeer snapping to oversteer eh?

I like the water hazards, really adds to the challenge.

How did you do compared to others?

i`m thinking of the cobb package for next summer. is it a good one ? or should i buy all different brands and make my own kit?

thanks
Whats good for me doesnt mean you should do it necessarily... but my setup is mainly just F&R whiteline swaybars, RCE springs on the stock strut, then front camber plates set to (-3.0 or so). I wouldnt really recommend the cobb springs or there swaybars but there is plenty of dicussion of this in the susp. forum...

heh, yep the car at entry feels a bit understeery, but exit and transitions is pretty damn great... but then again the understeer seen is my turning in a bit too hot, that wasnt a perfect run - I know a few more tenths coulda been found if I would have cleaned up some... oh well. Me and my buddy in STU have been battling back and forth all season - I got him by 0.02 that event, hehe I was 2nd in PAX and he in 3rd

So you cover suspension components and tire selection in this thread. What about front & rear tire psi? Stock or ???

So what would the conventional wisdom on hot vs. cold be? Hot = +3 or 4 psi over cold? I don't know, I'm guessing.

that might be about right, im not positive, usually I do my first run at my desired pressure cold, then after a run or 2 (depending on ambient/track temp) bleed the pressures accordingly
