I have been preparing for Laguna Seca this upcoming Saturday. I had my mechanic tighten the KW's. Instead he lowered the car. It turns out I like this as they fixed the roads around here. It feels even better than before around the bends. I have been expecting the mechanic the past two days to pick up the car and finish the job however. Today must be the day!

The KWv3's are coil overs that allow for easy lowering and stiffness adjustments as well. My mechanic let me down today. I saw him late today and he said bring it in the morning and leave it. Normally he picks up and drops off for me. I may keep your picture up another month Mrs. March. Of course I won't be able to mark my calendar to wish you luck. I may need to rethink this.

I like all this banter. Nice to see you folks here. BC20, please keep us posted, right here* if you'd like, on your upcoming track day. When is it?
I got my car back yesterday after dropping it off in the mornings rain. I am a lucky man. It was dry and the road was some what open. All I can think is why didn't I set these coil overs to this stiffer setting ages ago. Well today I leave for a 600 mile trip so I will be able to report if I still think that this is a good set up. I cleaned out my car including spare tire, sub woofer, mats, tools, etc. I hope that I will not need these things on an all or nothing gamble. I have more room for luggage, but it is the hassle at the track I am actually avoiding. At 4PM Saturday there could be as many as 105 cars on the track at once. I am holding a small bragging rights contest as to how many cars will actually be on the grid. I am guessing a lot fewer. I'll go with 27. * I'll even re-title this thread if you wish.

Fair enough, but with that number, I say you will eat, what you are saying.
