Quick Question: Did you take these with a Nikon?

 

mine were taken by my GF with a Canon XTi with a 90-300(?) old school lens

very nice pics!

 

Flatline what suspension you running looks like you could use sways.

 

The 2nd pic, silver 2.5RS. Is that the guy with the "The Alignment Guy" sticker somewhere on the car?

 

yes,

and he is very good at driving that car.

 

im on ksport coils....

sways are definatly next on the list!

just trying to figure out which ones to go with. with the wagon i can run any rear (i think) but for the front i have to get a wagon specific (i think) and there arent too many out there.

 

No love for #180 8)

Had a fun time out there Sunday.

 

He is a very good driver. He was at every autoX event in Milwaukee, WI.

 

The course on Sat was fun, very flowing, good speeds for most cars. Sun, although primarily the same course in reverse albeit a few changes, felt a little more technical, and it was a bit tougher on the lower powered cars with a lot of up hill accelerating. It was challenging finding a good way to squeak in more speed or maintain and pretty much ignoring any course hugging lines for the how long can I keep my foot down lines. :laugh:

 

I was only there for a little bit. I did see your car at the grid but did not see you race.

 

i don't see any hills in the pics :biggrin:

 

Ok, gentle slopes for the acceleration challenged. :laugh:

 

No problem! Here's a picture my buddy took.



I was digging all the subarus there. Sheen, I was glad to see you out there again too!

 

what...no pics of the slowest sti there? :laugh:

 

hop over to www.mnautox.com, lots more pics over there.

 

This car divided by zero

You need less negative camber on the rear.

 

None of me there either.

 

I took a ride in that car a couple weeks ago. Talk about a firm suspension...

 

I am pretty sure I saw that silver rs at my work place monday morning. Who does it belong to? I think that is the first time I saw it at the parking lot too.

 

not enough down force needs a big giant wing or two :laugh:

 

Anybody know what suspension setup was on that gutted Subaru with the giant fiberglassed airdam/splitter? That sucker was firm.

 

I watched a couple of his buck runs...looked pretty damn fast. I was working corner 2 when you were driving, do you have a cf hood or was I just hallucinating?

 

How fast is your shutter speed? The wheels dont even look like they are moving

 

See, they have a point.

 

Yeah, CF. It's the only option in existence other then the stock steel piece. I just needed to lighten up the front some so the dampers actually do enough. I've got a 350 lb/in front spring on D-Specs, and that's the top end of what they support (for the given weight of the front end of the car). Less weight, less damper needed to achieve the same control level. A secondary option would be to step to a light battery or move the battery to the rear.

 

haha BRR, the forester looked really good going around the auto x course, I'd go so far as to say it's the cleanest forester in the state...lolz
