yeah, i'm with you on the rear sway bar and real LSD now lol. it was a cheap/budget racer, but now it'll be baller soon haha :P
dude, i wanted you to seriously try out my e30 and tell me what you think you would do to the suspensions based on how it felt... anyways, next time. i'm going to HTM on April 11 for the Touke, wanna go? (~.^)Leave a comment:

you guys need to get:
- WORKING E-BRAKES (and spin knobs, let me know if you want one, I can get you guys one)
- Stiffer spring rates (or new shocks, something wrong in there)
- Put your damn rear sway in
- and get some real LSDs!Leave a comment:

word? what suspension setup are you going to be doing? also, i might buy a Kazz 1.5 LSD or a 2way 'cuz i'm done with my welded diff. I like welded diff, but i need that LSD to kick in, so my rear has a way to slow down than skipping lol also, so i won't have to understeer too much if i turn late by accidentLeave a comment:

+1, i needed a sway bar as my rear end would not stay side ways and even if i clutch kick, it still has a hard time kicking the rear end which is why my tire pressure was at 40psi, but it was still too high that i would lose traction on a straight line. i learned a lot though that night and thanks for the tips too Jon, i did what i can lol.I was told i had the 4th fastest qualifying time of 25.5 seconds. The fastest timed run of the day was from the miata which was a 24.010. There were only a few cars that made it in to the 25 second range. Most cars were between 28-29 seconds. But i did hear there was some fishy business going on. I was amazed at how well i did. Jon was a huge help with the pointers he gave me. Maybe next time i'll run with out my stereo system and interior. Also by the time we got around to qualifying oi was on E and i was starving my fuel pump in the turns. LOL. Jeremial should have pu on his sway bar from his other car. He would probably qualified much better.
you did well, nigel! it was challenging competing with you. you beat me once and i beat you once, so cool runnings :) your car is setup better than mine :( but that's cuz you have a rear sway. i'm going to be re-adjusting my suspensions soonLeave a comment:

dude, fucking Quoc Ly took it home, w00t! lol, he owes us all drinks, btw haha jk. Dude, Jon, did you notice how unorganized the event was? And where were you during the last 30 mins of practice runs? I was trying to look for you, so you can run my e30 on the track while I went to the bathroom and peepee lol. I left my keys on my car too for you like hopefully you will just run it haha. I couldn't walk far to find you 'cuz my calves were hurting baaaad and it still hurts today, fuuuuuuh.
anyways, dude, the entire event was unorganized as they promised that the fastest 16 out of the 37 drivers will advance to the bracket. well, it turns out that the fastest 16 drivers were not picked, but rather the winner of the two cars racing will advance to the top 16, so Steve, Jon H, and I didn't advance even though our times was top 16. At least Nigel made it, but that's cuz he beat the car he was up against during qualifications when they said they were recording fastest 16 times while I got beat by a brand new STI by like .10 seconds, but my time was still top 16 except that I think they closed their eyes and said, "that car advaces, this car advances" and pretty much handpicked it, fuuuuuuuuh lol.
but whatevers 'cuz i knew either Jon H or Quoc Ly was gonna take it home anyways lol. i just wanted to be at second place or third and bring home a tall ass trophy. i can't believe Quoc was able to fit his lady and the tropy on his miata lol. i thought that was hilariousLeave a comment:

Heheheoh word. practice and get better. go to go kart places, so you'll pick up quick. the trick is less steering the better and faster you go.
fa sho! i'll see if i can make it and check y'all e30s out too. but hopefully it's free and i'm confident that you may do well.
WOW! siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick. I'm going to WIN THIS EVENT! I heard I'm going up against an R33 Skyline lol. The only ppl I'm worried about is my brother, his friend, and Quok Ly (i think D1 driver now). I need a rear sway bar! who wants to lend me their rear sway bar? I'll split some cash for every win i take home. :)
Quoc Ly is driving a bone stock Mazdaspeed MiataLeave a comment:
