    Rubber OEM bushings are cheap. TABs are first in line I'd say.

      give a look at this thread: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=226646

      some modifications required, but MR2/Celica GTS shocks in front and Camaro in rear should be cheap enough. then find some cheap, stiffer springs if you can. as a priority, i would do OEM RTABS. if you have any moneys, M3 offset CAB's are good too.

      i realize i just listed about $400 worth of parts, but ehh.. good luck

          Thanks for that. I was actually wondering if the Camaro shocks would work. Too bad I just got rid of some Tokico adjustables :(

            I don't think we could consider our second race anything but a success!!! We finished 38th overall (I believe 102 starters), and 10th in class. We suffered only a few problems, one that involved a tow, but the car and drivers did a great job. The fast nature of this course showed our car's main weakness, soft (and high riding) suspension. A more thorough update will be coming shortly.

            Now we start the prep for our next race, Capitol Offense at Summit Point in June.

                See you next weekend. We'll be in the Team Judge Phil (blatant bribery) e30 with the stripes all over it, probably parked next to the very slow gold MGB

                  I've been really bad at the updates. I'm 3 races behind, NJ 2012, WV 2012, and NY 2013. Finished all races and our finishes keep improving. So far best is 6th in class (B) at NY 2013.

                  I will try to update this in the near future.

                  Unfortunately we won't be there this year. This is the first time I am missing the race since it began. The next race we are shooting for is NH in October. Good luck!!! Patience is key at Summit, just try to keep yourself out of trouble, surely there will be plenty of it.
