I will tell you one thing.. she sure can drive.

The spectators loved her..

And Dave almost beat her time in her own car.. that wouldn't have been pretty.

I started talking in an angry way during my laps.. funny thing is I got faster.. go figure :)

I know what she was saying... (Hey Larry - we need a "turn you POS" smilie!) ...and that is an 8/10th attempt.

Just a little bit of roll and a push there. I can see why the passenger front got ripped up on Friday.

I guess that explains the picture I got on my cell phone while I was sitting in Phoenix of a rear bar.

Great picture Nick!

The rear bar will make it a totaly different car James.. Pozzi Racing does top shelf work!

Matt,
This car only has .5 deg neg camber static, so that will be increased, then add a rear bar to reduce understeer and roll.
I think this photo is a good illustration of how even an aggressive neg camber gain curve will not help and can even hurt when the front suspension is nose up. A lot of power is being applied to try and kick the rear around and take load off the front, but it's not succeeding 100%, it IS helping, and about all the driver can do. The car is also turning up hill

Another issue is a 315 rear tire, 245 front, so front tread width is limited, a 275 front tire would be better but difficult to clear at a low ride height and this car was very low to start out.

She beats on cars for free... although her (and Dave's) input is certainly worth a few bucks..

James,

You do know that here in the States, possession is 9/10th of the law? :evil:

The more I'm under that Camaro, the more I like this car. The detail to workmanship, minimal frills, and most everything is functional and with purpose. Wow!! Can't wait to get things done and ready for some track fun.

I'm excited ...

Cheers,
Mary Pozzi

So I was recently reminded...

I'm glad that you're happy - I know that it's not perfect but we tried to do it right. Positive feedback is always appreciated.

I'm really looking forward to the next couple of months... hopefully things can come together and everything works out they way we hope. Considering how few miles are on the car (after Streets it will probably have as many track miles that street miles) it can't get anything but better - especially with your help.

I'm excited that you're excited...:woot:

I completely concur with Mary's statements,this car is very killer underneath and the attention to detail is second to none...:smoke:

:thankyou:

Well.. from what I've read about her I would guess it would be a four letter word of choice.

Those cars love it when you talk dirty to them and abuse them! How do you think she gets what she wants out of the cars?
