thanks, yes I run JRZ RS Pro (2 way with remote reservoir) with all SPL makes except for the tie rods which I should be doing them eventually.
I will be removing all aero and redo it all, need to install the new nismo front bumper (rear is now installed) and make a new front splitter. Will cut up the rear 2015 nismo bumper openings to air out more and duct it coming off the rear tires. Finish up the diff cooler setup and I am having a HUGE issue with oil blow by, regular catch can wont work it's throwing oil ALL over even after 1 lap. |

So I suspect that configuration of that track really favors lighter cars like the S2000. Have you competed against some of those S2000's at other venues with better results?

Streets of willow favors miata, s2k, and even frs/brz is the perfect track for lighter cars. That being said those s2k have seriously several tens of thousands of dollars in them. The evasive s2k has possible every single upgrade you can think off, my buddy's green s2k is a full on race car, car was fully stripped/chassis welded/ widened etc and the top finishers also hire drivers! They are bad *** builds a Z could never come close unless FULLY gutted, stripped, full race and FI and might have a chance. And a better driver lol!
If my suspension was dialed in, I am sure we would have run about 2 full seconds faster atleast, in the video you can see I was just correcting every single corner and sliding |
