Nice pic at the straight away. That was the scariest part of the track for me. All out coming into a blind straight away past the start finish line. But I would do it all over again the first chance I get. LOL!

Nice pic right there Clint. Thanks for the invite, sorry I couldn't make it. Woulda loved it.
Cali Speedway. MmmmmMMmmmMMMmm. Don't let the "oval" fool yah, it's a fun track.
I see a lot of people are getting bitten by road racing! Sweet. LS is one I'd like to someday, so I can't comment on it, but I think you guys will all have a lot of fun at Cali, Buttonwillow or Willow Springs.
Peace

See you all tomorrow,

Clint,

Do you have wheel spacers on you're sedan? The wheels look so flush against the body, unlike the coupe.

Dan,
Yes and no. The sedan's fenders are shallower than the coupes and the Zs (they don't flare out). The trac width is ~20-30mm narrower as the result (10-15mm each side). Fitting the the 17" coupe/Z wheels to a sedan give a nice flush fit against the fenders w.o. using any spacers.

However, for the track I run more than -3.0* of front negative camber (using my adjustable front A-arms), consequently they don't look nearly as flush as can be at the front. I am using a 5mm spacer at the front, but not nearly enough (as you can see from the pics). Another 10mm would have been nice, but I don't like to run excessively long extended studs.

Clint:

What's ur camber in the rears when u're on the street vs track?

I didn't see u adjust anything for the rears unless u did it with ninja quickness.

Good observation Dru. My rear camber is the same for both street and track at approx. -1.8*. Ideally, I'd be adjusting those too, but too much of a pain compare to the front A-arms.
