I am LOST>>>>>>>>> I did get 5 good 25 minute sessions with PCA Schattenbaum on Friday. All good, except for the "PRE-BRAKING" LOTS of pad knockback.... NO speedo, no timer, but seem to remain out front in HPDE 3/4 until I was tired of that and wanted the follow for a while... Hopefully I will get set up with some sort of timer. I have used my iphone in the 1LE Camaro, is there anything I may install, that is cost effective? ps... If I may, how do I post the suspension pics, car , is and was competitive, although some stuff disappeared over the years, e.g. Carrera coilovers, still have 2 sets, but not knowing if I need or are they usable. The rear swaybar is a mystery. also the front nascar style is as well. BRING ON THE ARCHIVES , AND PAST EXPERIENCES, THanks to all Rich / Captains Outfitters / Ocean Customs |
