What a fun day it was! The car was amazing although i'm still learning how to adjust these shocks, lots of tuning will come. Mark was having some trouble with the back end stepping out even in a straight line...He'll be swaping out rear springs tonight to see if it helps.
And the Cline mobile was flying out there today, even if the car wouldn't go into second gear.

Great job For TopGear8 and he seemed to be having a ton of fun in the process
And to add insult to injury one of my recently new Kumho 8-ply trailer tires blew out shortly after leaving the site.
My car has no grip. Looks like I'll be changing tires and starting over again. Not sure between the choices of Dunlop, Hankook, or Toyo but it's hard to argue against the results.
And I need new tires for my truck too. My bank account hates TireRack ....

Mark,
Sorry to see Blytheville didn't pan out. Since you're back in Dallas now, you're welcome to co-drive my car at the next Texas Region event on June 20 if you want to give Dunlops a try.

FWIW, my "cheap garbage Japanese" Endura-Tech suspension is still going strong after 10k miles of street use, a half dozen track days, and several autocross events. :D
I don't think I'll ever buy Koni products again, since I've had leaks with Konis on three of the last fours cars I've owned.

I've been on Koni shocks since 1994 and had very few leaks over a wide range of vehicles
the problem on these is an internal leak; gas got past the separator piston and into the shock oil. If you have monotube shocks the problem might exist and you don't even know it
but for better or worse I won't deny you the opportunity to beat me good

Thought I would have to take you up on that offer after the Post Office lost my shocks for the last week, but they finaly made it to their destination today.
Ordered a set of shaved Hankook RS3 tires this week. Wish I had another set of 18 x 9 SSR Comp wheels ....
Also shifting gears on springs, decided to give up on the soft spring concept. So if I make it to Ennis with my car I'll be completely cold on a totally different setup.
I seriously considered a set of Toyo R1R 255/35-18 tires, but just didn't feel comfortable taking a chance on them.

I was looking forward to seeing how my budget build stacked up against your car, but it'll have to wait for another event.
