I did install that this offseason. Haven't seen enough data on whether or not it works, but we'll see. Plan to run some tests later this year when it gets really hotThanks for the responses, Kevin.
Since you run so much hot-track time have you also thought about bridging the heads coolant as well? Like this MMR kit?
Curious about this one too. My thought is it being related to running solid bushings, but I could be totally missing the mark.
Copied from this thread.
As @5.2 liters of democracy said above, I run the solid bushings and spherical bearings in the IRS...no need for bracing with those. Tons of communication and no flex that I can detect.
Correct. No need for bracing with with the solid bushings and spherical bearings. Remove all the rubber and you'll have plenty of rigidity in the rear.
no doubt. I'm just curious why nobody makes a Shore/Duro of about 70 instead of 90+ or aluminum for these inserts...
No much to update! Car has been parked in the garage since March given everything! Honestly, it's been nice to step back for a bit to relax and focus on everything I've been ignoring for 3 yearsWe need an update @honeybadger
Me too, brother. Me too! Likely won't be back out before end of year (or Fall optimistically) given all that's going on. Looking forward to it once the dust settles, tho!
Not I'll ever go W2W with this car. My plans for it wont really fit in any class and I'm a bit too attached to it get all banged up. More likely unlimited class in time attack. Would love to build a vintage racer and do that for W2W stuff. But who knows what the future will hold!
Are you experiencing wheel hop on road courses? I haven't experienced any so far
Re-phrase... I want to solve the wheel hop i get messing around without adversely affecting handling on the road course. I'm just dipping my toes into the deep end of the pool but.. towards the end of a set of tires.... i don't drive with traction control on very often just to get a better feel for what the chassis wants to do when it loses grip... and in my case it's chatter the rear wheels.
Ahh, okay. In that case, I would drop some solid bushings into the rear end (specifically the IRS cradle mounts). Some folks have had good luck with the BMR lockout kit that bolts in, but that's a bandaid fix IMHO. I went with full tilt boogie parts and am very happy. Don't need the diff lockouts, just the cradle. Swapping in some spherical bearings into the control arms is a good idea as well. Same stuff I did in post 94.
This fully won't be addressed tho until the below is applied, right? However, it's really not a necessity unless it really bothers the driver.
