^ well actually this topic is probably very pertinent to this select crowd and few others ;) [my last post on the topic though Tony, no worries!]

I worry about limiting camber in situations where the trajectory is curved, which if I understand correctly is what phunk's proposed modification will do (as it is designed for maximum tire contact patch in straight line acceleration under load). I have had my car aligned multiple times, finding the limits of each part added and researched this a bit before buying all SPL suspension parts. There are some non-trivial patents filed by super car manufacturers e.g. METHOD TO CONTROL TOE ANGLE AND CAMBER ANGLE IN ACTIVE REAR SUSPENSIONS OF CARS - Patent application that appear to indicate that this is not a simple problem with an easy solution, requiring linear actuators and dynamic electronic adjustment. Of course always open to new ideas (and phunk has proven himself an innovative indidivdual)!

MEH....FML I missed my alignment appointment, today, was my youngest son's 1st birthday, so had to cancel...lol

Anyhow, fooling around near a friend's house for a bit and trying out a different setup on the GoPro...much better, but I did keep speed down(residential area) below 45ish. Anyhow, a "kinda" hard 3000rpm launch(which would instantly throw the car into 420+ ft lb easily) pretty much slid through 1 to 3, but the tires are still fresh, camber is still **** and tire pressure still high from a 90 mile commute the past 5 days(gotta save SOME gas).

Anyhow, at least you can hear the car and not the wind, just something to chew on I guess. But you kind of get the idea of how violent this kit is. Most of the driving is tip-in and part throttle, the damn thing spools like no other and this is with the "street" sensitivity and timing maps...

This car...is totally daily drivable. My commute has tons of traffic, hills, turns, stop and go's. It has not flinched, not an inch. Everything is this kit works together and my supporting parts are seamlessly working out to be a factory-fit ride....with asinine amounts of power.

I like what im seeing! :D

Oh and this one from yesterday as well...part of my commute home. Tried the "windsock foam in backplate" method, was terrible. Muffles sound and still got wind noise. Yes, my exhaust is quite quiet as well.

Looks like a mic is the way to go....gotta buy a case, mic adapter and mic though...:owned:

Anyways, just popping BOVs like collars in this one, nothing crazy. There is an on-ramp at the end, but the radar detector went off(there was a highway patrol about half a mile down flicking instant-ons, so another win for valentine v1), so I pulled off of it, car hooked a lot better than my re-11s here.

Slowly getting better at using this magic little camera! Awesome if you have kids as well!

Problem found. That used to be a cool event before every retard on earth started showing up to race on the freeway and do burnouts in parking lots. Now you couldn't describe the event without using the word "cluster". I'm shocked there wasn't a body count this year- it was wet and rainy and it was the night most people were out celebrating St. Patrick's day. So freeway racing and drunk drivers? What could possibly go wrong?

There most certainly was some racing- HPD popped a bunch of Vette guys.

Sorry Tony, we'll stop cluttering up your thread.

For people to race in the rain is crazy all the video I have seen so far from it haven't had any of that. The Texas 2k is something I have been dying to go able to get down there yet.

It was wet and nasty all weekend. Was it actually raining while they were out being idiots on the freeway? I don't know. I do know the event has gotten out of hand in recent years. I've been on the freeway in prior years and had guys fly past me racing at warp speed. The news this year showed some Vette guys getting popped by HPD. It's a cool event, I just wish it would go somewhere else.

Back on track.....some short in-car soundtrack on the phone, because it was friday..yes, that is the most amazing airbag indicator you have ever seen!

How sad should I be that my phone's speaker is 10x better than the gopros? :ughdance:

C'mon man, we already made 660 RWH & 590 Torque on a stock block with ease. What could be bigger news than that???

Stay tuned.....

You know where to get it. Sylmar is close enough to home. Besides, I can give you a 55 gallon drum you can fill it up with and take it in your truck back home!

It's going to happen. He is just posturing before he steps up to the plate for the FAST-785+ fuel system and Sebz bad *** tune!

You could always get tuned on both you would have to run the E85 out though since we cant run flex fuel on our cars yet that's suppose to be an option with Ecutek though.
