bro wheels because the car didn't look stupid enough already!
 
So tested a new setup similar to what Rob runs. Thanks to BNE, Towery and Rob for the help getting proper setup/alignment. The car has so much more grip! I'm also running Fat Cat Racing bump stop which acts like a dynamic spring once the strut compresses it. It's pretty damn smooth. Have to make some spacer to use the front bump stops. Have some plans of things to fix for next time.....hopefully I can get them done.

At the end of the day I finally got used to the setup (don't think I have any pics of then). Texas at the end of June for competition!!

Went to texas...learned a bunch! I've been trying to get the car level. I still had a 2" rake but the rear had sooo much more grip. First event was a rough road with not a lot of grip. I tried 0? toe and was fighting the car. Set the toe to 1/8" our and it was much happier. Added a little bit of rake but ran a grippy setup that day. Line was so much more important with a grippy setup...but if i went wide I was golden!

Second day was at a road course and I had to and inch or so of rake to compensate for the huge amount of grip.

ran 8? of caster and it seemed harder to put the car where I wanted it. With my low caster setup I had more control. May tune back the caster a bit...thoughts?

Not much media yet :(

so im pretty bad at updating this thing. Been trying different setups. and have been able to add a lot more grip to the car. Trying to correct my ride height issue still. I'm within .5" rake and it has really helped. Car was rubbing badly so I took a bit of caster out......i miss it

High caster alignment (7.5)...
