Build for autocross and track - the Warthog
Thank you so much! How much negative camber in the rear can I add without compromising straightline grip?
I currently have lowering springs part number GMG997TTWCR (219146). Doesn't seem like they're coilovers because I don't see height adjusters on them.
Car has 30k miles. OEM LSD option.
For tires I'm running stock size Bridgestone RE-71R.
My impression on a small autox track, is that there's room to improve in body roll and also there's a noticeable delay between steering input and body motion.
I don't want to run super aggressive negative camber since I mostly drive it on the street

For he delay in response, it takes the whole shopping list to reduce it
Stiffer swaybars will make a noticeable difference, and then if you wish for more, I would address the damping.
@webspoke
thanks for the reply, i will go camber plates then, what are your thoughts on which ull recommend for stock suspension?
im currently on cup2s, how would you rate them against RE71R?

@webspoke, thank you so much. I'll get the alignment dialed in, and then look for swaybars. Do you have a brand/sizing you recommend?
@gnoy26 I've read that cup2s are as sticky as RE-71R, but not as good in the rain. Probably also less sticky when cold. You won't get a fair opinion, unless someone's owned BOTH

I'd suggest Tarrett for best compatibility with the factory struts.
Late start to 2018 season
2018 race season has gotten off to a slow start, as my wife and I have been working on our property and horses (the 1hp versions) mostly. At the last minute decided to dust off warthog , literally, and take him out to the Mineral Wells pro solo which is only about 100mi. from us.
24 launches later, my wife won her class, and I was a moderately close (0.6) 3rd. In the runoff challenge on sunday, I was matched up with a friends well built GTR. He had a .3 dial in head start at the tree, but bogged and was slow out of the box. I was surprised to be close on accel once hooked up, as his car is 800+ wheel when cranked up.
I won that round on the other side by .028s, but redlight the next round
