SCCA F-Street Setup. What's Everyone Done so Far?

[destoups]

Whats up Ryan! glad to see you're doing suspension. Can't wait to see you out this season!

If you can get the Konis for that cheap, I might pull the trigger too.

Tire Rack now has these on sale, $720 for the set.

I was as little irritated that that they gave me a 3/31 shipping date after I purchased. Looks like Tirerack has pushed back availability as well though.

Chris Harvey confirmed the 18th for the fronts from TR. (We are trying to get shocks on my car for the California events in April.)

This is what I was told by Wes at TireRack about mine. Fronts shipping the 18th and the rears not till April 9th. This is well before Spring Nats so I'm ok with that delivery schedule. If they do indeed ship around the 9th, they should be here in time for the first T'n'T scheduled at LAP-N by the Nebraska Region. That'd be awesome!

I'd rather get the fronts first anyhow since they take longer to change. Rears are super easy.

Exactly lol the rears should maybe take 45 mins for both sides

What is everyone running for a lightweight exhaust that doesn't get you in trouble with the decibel meter?

Also front or rear sway bar?

 

[destoups]

Not sure if anyone here ordered Konis through Tire Rack but I am assuming all vendors are affected. Fronts won't ship until April 22!

I wound up canceling ...

Sorta FS related...

I have an Asus T100 tablet thingy running a full version of Windows 10 and I can't get the Ford Service Information CD to run on it unless it is installed from an external DVD/CD drive and with the CD attached.

Anyone know how to get the FSM to run from a laptop like this without having to have the CD?

Can you fit 285/35R19 RE71R on the front tires on the stock PP rims? How pinched are they?

 

[Norm Peterson]

Physically possible - probably.

Recommended - not generally for unrestricted duty (285/35's need to be on at least 9.5").

A minute at a time with no trunk load and just the driver aboard is one thing. Two or three up and a heavy trunk load for hundreds of miles at a time on a hot summer day, maybe not.

Only use would be racing autox

 

[Norm Peterson]

IOW, your basic "one minute at a time, etc.", which I wrote with autocross specifically in mind.

Back in the days when R-comps were legal for all of the Stock category classes, fitments even further outside the tire industry recommended range were quite common.
