  1. SCCA CAM-C Thread

    Thats up to you. You’re going to have to make some bets and take some chances. I dont own a set of wheels in that size or those tires, so YMMV. But no, its not the aggressive camber you need to watch for, its the incorrect or neglected toe settings.
  2. SCCA CAM-C Thread

    There isnt as much downside to running track camber on the street as you might assume, and this is the track forum, not the handling forum so… 3.2-3.5 front, 2.0 rear. If 2.7 then 2.7 front but still 1.8-2.0 rear. Its your car, but at some point once you’ve got a few more events under...
  3. SCCA CAM-C Thread

    One of my friends is parting out his CAMC build and has the Pro Parts coilovers available. Its the same (model) set I won '22 Solo Nats with and works well with front springs from 500-650. He's asking a very attractive price (~1500). If someone here is interested, DM me and I can put you in...
  4. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    40+ is past the optimal range for the MP4S on our cars. Keep them under 37, and the factory spec of 32 (cold pressure) is a good spot to be in. Your pic shows 32 not 42, so I think you're probably fine.
  5. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    No, that doesnt look like bad wear. The MP4S uses two tread compounds, one on the shoulder and one on the main 3/4 of the tire. The tread change location is in a different spot on this differently sized 285/35R19 MP4S of mine, but you can see it. Its one tread block over on the wider 285 in...
  6. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    The distinct color change between the shoulder tread and the inside tread is a compound change engineered into the tire. You’re not talking about that are you? I dont see any other things which look like odd wear Still need to see an alignment sheet.
  7. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    Oh sorry, I thought a dust line was a cord.
  8. Replace Brembo Brake Pads

    It just depends. If the rotors are grooved it or if the pads are used it can take weeks of normal driving to wear in and get a good contact area, which has downsides, but usually isnt the end of the world. Not many places want to resurface rotors, so usually you just suffer through some extra...
  9. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    How many miles on the tires?
  10. Bagged and Camber still out of spec?? HELP

    Right, all of this adds up, seen it about 20 times. MP4S is sensitive as heck to toe being off slightly. Its not your camber its your toe is jacked up when you change ride height with the bags (or its off at your default) and when the toe is off, you quickly cord through the MP4S tire on the...
  11. Harsh Ride

    Did you upgrade your shocks? Did you check if the bump stops were properly trimmed? Both of those suggestions from 2 years ago were spot on. Switching to the Ford Perf Track pack is a good idea, since you'll get shocks from that and because the springs are a little milder. Bad ride comes from...
  12. Steeda Camber plate, Max camber -2.6

    You never posted a picture. Send a picture of the strut tower with the least camber, then we might be able to help.
  13. How do your store your service history?

    Excel here, but if I started again it would be in google. I'm not worried about proving anything, this is for my own records.
  14. 285 Tread Width Tires (anyone else have radial-like pull?)

    Push/pull in and out hard at different spots around the tire. The goal is to find out if any bearings or bushings are shot so you need to try a few different directions and spots because we dont know where to focus right now.
