    No rear sway, full soft on the shocks...all the way. I'll get the front sway going for the next race and see how much a difference that does. Depending on how that goes different springs might be in order. However, if I were to have A6's all around, this might not be an issue. Who knows, so many variables and so little seat time.

      Here's Hsun's fastest run (53.9, 989 pts) in my M3: http://youtu.be/xO5gFklUjzE?hd=1&t=27s

      I apparently forgot to turn the camera on for my third run (53.1+1). Bummer, I drove pretty well. This is my second run, 53.6+1 (3rd slalom cone): http://youtu.be/lKfM3dpSnXk?hd=1



      In my opinion, a larger front swaybar will make your car 100% better. I wouldn't even consider changing spring rates until you have added a front bar.

        Sorry about the cones. I feel some of that had to be due to the piss poor effort of the corner workers in heat one...that was just said. Amanda also had an apex cone about 3 feet outside the box on its side on one of her runs...lots of people there for their first time.

        NICE! I was watching you and Hsun from the last slalom/finish line. Everything looks really well. You also seemed to carry so much more speed through the last slalom than anyone else. Visually, it seemed like many people had to brake hard at the second cone for that last slalom so they didn't plow the third. Your slower entry to that slalom seems to be key to having an overall high speed through the entire thing.
        Yah, I'm going to make sure that I get a PPIR and a FRA event with just that front bar to see how things feel. I just need it to be shipped to me!
