        Let us know if Drake Welding did a good job with the placement of the camber adjusters and you can adjust properly. Which kit did you have welded in? Ireland Engineering?

        Drake wants $110 an hour for their work and are backlogged at about 1 -1/2 weeks
        I didn't have camber adjusters welded in, it was just reinforcement plates for the motor mounts and sway-bar tabs. Not sure what you mean by the second part there. It was about $110/hr but they weren't backlogged at all, I got my sub-frame back the next day. As for their quality of work, it was great. I'm extremely happy with the finished product.

                        I doubt it. And that is absolutely a challenge.

                              It would be fun, but I'll be in Solvang that weekend for the annual Datsun Roadster show. There will be 80+ of them. Some from Canada, Utah, Vegas, ect. Its the west coast meet for them.

                              As for drifting T-hill, good luck. Especially during an open track day. Turn 1, you are in the dirt along with anyone next to you. Its a 90 mph corner. Turn 2, you might have a chance, turn 3, you are in the dirt (off camber), 4, perhaps, 5, you are in the dirt (off camber and downhill) if you take 5 too fast you will also be airborne, 6 could be done, 7 could be done, 8 I'd suggest not, the odds of you ending up the hill upside down are better than average since its easily a 90 mph corner, turn 9, you better have the whole track to yourself, and expect to end up in the dirt, 10, how good are your brakes, the same with 11 and 12, 13,14 might be doable but there are some serious rumble strips on the outside of the corners, and the berms on exit of 14 are pretty good (I've had the lemons car half airborne when I got pushed out onto one abruptly a couple years ago.) I'd say just go out, turn some laps and have fun. Then scratch your head when a stock Miata blows past you mid corner. :crazy: 8)
