I am new to this forum and just want to learn more about the RX-8s. I have seen a couple of serious guys here who autox their RX-8s. What do you guys run for shocks? I am asking from the point of view of keeping the car in stock. I have a friend who getting into autox and i am helping her set it up. I have about 4 years of experience and been all over the country (Nationals etc) I am yet to drive it but just want to know what to expect? Understeer or ever steer... any input is appreciated...

Thanks.....

 

Hey Hassan. Glad u made it!

 

Whats up Hassan!
This is matt, I dont know if you rember me, but I was the one driving the black s10 truck at the delta event at belle chase on March 7th(?) If so, small world huh? I know this is kinda OT but can I show up to the next general meeting and join up with delta? I had a blast out there running the truck that day and would like to run some future events with delta (esp. the TLAC). Thanks Hassan,
Matt

 

Thanks Monique... So you gonna let me race your car? hahah

Yes MAtt you can join as long as Gail is there. And I remember you

 

Yeah, hopefully at Delta in April unless you want to for TLAC II. Doubt it since you'll be kicking a** in the 240!!

 

You got it.. thanks....

 

Nice pic of the 240 btw. Nauseated thinking about it!

hehe j/k :p

 

You should you were in the car at the time...

 

I think we hijacked your thread. But no one is giving us info. So what are we gonna do w/my 8??

 

Thanks Hassan, I will talk to gail about it, and see what I need to do to get everything worked out. Also, at the next event can I ride with you for a lap or fun run? I want to see where you get on the brakes (how deep) and the lines you take, etc. I just want to compare what you are doing to what I am doing. I am still pretty new to this, so all the help I could get would be great. Thanks Hassan,
Matt

 

I got some ideas for your setup Monique.

Matt, sure just come and ask me for a ride.

 

Ok. I'll stop by the shop after work today.
