If you guys go to NNJ with Nick, he'll keep an eye out for you guys... right Nick?

The event we have on the calendar is the Chesapeake Challenge #38, but if you vote to go elsewhere that's fine... in addition to Warminster, there is a Saturday event at Englishtown, NJ the day before Father's Day. I bet the traffic down to Ripkin on I95 could be bad with the beach season starting up.

OF COURSE.......,.....MY BET IS STILL ON!! :dude::dude:

Nick, for the bet, can we switch cars?

Daren!
IT'S THE CAR, IT'S THE COURSE, AND IT'S THE DRIVER, AND THE DRIVER!!

You have a more potent car, you just have to finess it around those tight turns.

I can't seem to get the front end to hook up -- it's getting better with changes I've made but not quite there.  It wil be interesting to see if I have the same problem at Pocono, if so I think I'll be changing the rear springs.

Darren!
If you have adjustable sways, loosen the front ones, or tighten the rears. The 996's were made to understeer by the FACTORY. If you have adjustable sways, it is an easy solution, if not, GET SOME........$$$$$ unfortunately.:?

[Darren]

The suspension is pretty far from factory at this point, Bilstein PSS9s, front and rear monoball upper strut mounts, rear spherical control arms, etc... But the PSS9 spring setup is still has understeer dialed in.  Even with 3' negative camber in the front, bigger front tires, and the rear sway set on stiff, it still pushes a little more than I'd like -- at least at autox. 

[betegh9]

can you get a thicker bar for the rear, set it in the middle, and then tighten as you feel fit?

16MAY07 - OFFICIAL RESULTS FOR EVENT 2:

Well done to Nick for winning event 2 by a mile - pax system seems to be working well as many pax results quite close together ..........

How did Geza's PPF end up being so high?  Is that because of his higher-than-stock HP because of the chip??

No idea - that's the PPF he sent to me so that's the one I used!
