Super Jamie Regular On Probation Location: North East NSW Registered: December 2002	Re: Control arm lengths?? Wed, 20 April 2005 03:10 what do you actually do with your car? i found myself in a similar position a while ago, where i wanted to improve the handling of my car but had no idea what to start doing. driving on the street wasn't very taxing on the suspension. i could do lots of things, some more helpful in certain situations than others. basically, i needed some direction i suggest you do what i did: get into some amateur motorsport events like motorkhana or hillclimbs or saturday sprints, whatever's close to you and affordable. talk to people there, look at what other people with similar setups are doing, and hopefully you'll get an idea of what you want your car to drive like, then you can start changing camber or adding huge swaybars or dialing in your konis for better oversteer/understeer characteristics, etc etc even if your car is only half setup the way you'd like it (ideally, i'd change my front springs and front shocks and add some camber and blah blah blah) it's still a challenge to improve your times and your own driving with one constant setup. having a good racecar isn't just about setup, far far from it anyway, good to hear things are improving on the car front. keep us posted as to how it drives when you get the shocks dialled down and a more suitable swaybar on there [Report message to a moderator]
