ATTN all OH, IN, IL, KY and MI AutoCrossers.

There is a test and tune next weekend at Grissom Aeroplex in Peru IN. It's listed here on myautoevents.com :

It's being sponsered by Corvette Troy Club. I spoke with dale clark about the event. He said it open to any make and model of car not just vettes.

This is a great opp to tune your car. This site use to host a Cendiv Chanpionship, National Tour, and a ProSolo.

Hope to See you there

WoW. That was fun I almost forgot how fun autocrossing was. Man my car needs a lot of work. The only good thing I found out was my old S-02's still stick like glue. So it looks like i don't need to buy new tires just yet.

I did find out my old KYB-AGX shocks are shot. I've had them on for 2.5 years or so. The front are about 50%-%70 as good as new. The rears are shot also. The drivers side rear is leaking. But to be fair to kyb. I'm running Ground control coilovers with 500lbs springs in front and 400lbs springs in the rear. My car is also dropped pretty far. Probably too far not enough supension travel.

My alignment is also shot, but I'll get that fixed after I install my new AGXs.

I'm sure some of you are wondering why I did choose the Tokicas Lumminas over the AGX's. Based on my past experince with those shock I'd never put a set of those on my car. The Tokicas Blues suck they are no better than new stock SE shocks. As for the lumminas I bought a set for my 89 supra. The were terrible. The peformed as well as the OEM struts with 100K on them.

Another problem is the seats. WoW can you say no lateral support at all. Sheez I'm still sore from bracing myself during my 20 or so runs. Soon the lateral support issue will be a thing of the past. My racing seats just came in and I'm pleasently supprised.
