Did I say stock VLSD sucks? Man does it ever suck! I think thats the one thing that keeps the 370Z from doing well in Stock classes. Sure there is one hot shoe who podiumed at nationals but I'd put money on him being faster in a national class MX5. Also beware that AX seems to accelerate VLSD degradation in performance. Mine after a few AX days really seemed to fall off.

I haven't podiumed...yet. Last year was the first season I've ever run on R-comps and the first event we did with the shocks. Both the car and driver are much better sorted now and anything less than a podium finish would be a big disappointment for this season.
Also to emphasize what Shamu said, get 295's square for your Hoosiers, even with the 9"/10" sport wheels. Also I would recommend reconsidering the stillen bar and going up to the hotchkis because of the traction issues he talked about.
