Autocross- SCCA EV-X Class vs. SS

Actually, i do...

Point taken, I understand the lack of camber. So these things are basically like the camber challenged minis from back in the day...

Impressive collection! Yes, it's a relatively heavy car with nearly no camber from the factory. I've seen some come with as little as -0.2 degrees. It's the most obvious weakness of this platform in stock form.

I've heard you can do 295+, but part of that is a lot of camber, right?

I was running -2.7 degrees of camber, nothing too crazy! The fenders have some play in them too, so you can always pull them out slightly as well by (just a bunch of 10mm bolts and nuts).

Oh, and @Rodney! don't forget to zip tie your wheel speed sensors. Otherwise, say goodbye to them.

Yes! I saw something about the zip tie deal. Can i ask where exactly i place said zip tie? Is that the one in SK's pic?

275/35-18s are working well. MPP sport coilovers and front and rear control arms are going on this week.

That's an expensive sticker collection!

Lollers... That was just the tip of the iceberg, as i only started saving them the last few years i was doing the nationals/pros/tours. My ex used to say "see all those stickers? That is my new kitchen right there...."

No kidding! Losing ABS at the braking point sucks, and I've got the skid marks to prove it.

Uh. Holy crap it is.

They also left the rubber isolator on top of the spring spacer...

Seneca?

Yeah, when you coming up? It's been awhile since I have had the purple crack... actually since they were in street..

When? Dunno. I don't have a car yet... Where would you charge near there?

after I get it, I have to do a few events down in Jersey to see if I gel with the 3. If i want to go into debt again, mebbie I will do a full EVX build. Jury is still out...

I have my old 10 tire tag along trailer with hardtop mount from my A Stock S2000 days. I wonder if I can set it up with my Honda Generator, along with all the stuff needed for a multiple day/weekend event... Hmmm...

Indeed. The installer i paid jacked up the install...bad. Cost me 4 new tires after driving 50 miles to where I should have started in the first place. Electrified Garage in Ocala FL fixed everything and got it aligned. Drives great! Autocross this weekend!!

Glad you got it fixed!! Have a great time at autocross

My god this car handles great with MPP sport coilovers, front and rear control arms set to -2 camber and UP rear sway bar. Sticks like glue!

@M3Pdude Nice result there! In addition to your pax, I'm also impressed by that RS6 result. That's a big boi to be throwing around an autocross course!

He leaves the baby seats in the back seat during these events! I've ridden with him and that car has no hesitation.
