      We have a tentative early test-n-tune mid March with the official weekend starting on April 1. Hopefully shaking down the car doesn't take long and and we'll be able to get a decent base tune on the shocks in the next few weeks. As long as this mild weather continues we're looking pretty solid I'd say.

      Have no fear Ron, the ONLY reason this thing is at WoW is because I was asked. Otherwise I'd be out there right now doing the break-in procedure I have for it. This is NOT a show pony for me.....

      A huge shout out to Lance Hamilton who ran heat 1 in the Camaro this past weekend at our local autocross in Kansas City. He data logged tire temps for both me and himself allowing for some tire pressure tuning this day. Now this is the 4th event for the car but owing to some recent time on the lift unbinding the front and rear suspension it might as well be its first event so dramatic were the changes. The only adjustments we made to the shocks were just prior to my last run to the low speed rebound (bleeder) 3 clicks to the stiffer side. This was to try to cure a very loose rear we'd been coping with all day. While it certainly made the rear much more solid I was not used to it and was not able to really lean on it to full effect. There are subsequent pictures that also reveal we had much more diagonal roll than we prefer so we'll be working with (Dr.) Ron Sutton soon to work out whether it is as simple as moving the rear bar from the softest setting or something else. Hopefully I can talk Lance in to coming back out in early June so we can test the upcoming changes.
