With the Z. You really can't give the tires a quick look to see how they are wearing. With the rears. You have to stick your head under it to really see the inside of the tread. It's even worse with big meats. The more camber you have in the rear. The more you have to keep an eye one them.

;);)

Yeah, now I know. I looked at my last alignment sheet from last year and didnt realize how much negative camber we have. I think im at like -2.9

Thanks, I'm surprised I did. Somebody was looking out for me. When I heal up I'll take a picture of the big chunk I took out of the tree.

For a DD. That's way to much. I have mine set at -1.8, and I track mine. :driving:

Well, I WAS impressed on how well I was taking curves..lol

The Z tub is stiff as chit. There is very little flex in it.

Pure track cars can get away with that much camber. There is no sense for that on a DD, unless it's for looks.

Im looking at it again. its -2.3. Couldnt do better without camber arms.

I agree. I was impressed with how well it protected me. Every air bag in the car went off. I was fortunate that the passenger side hit the tree though. It was a big eucalyptus

Was anyone else hurt?

Wait until you see my camber since I just changed the springs and not any spc parts or toe bolts.

Yup. I always have to remind myself to respect the car. It isn’t the full pulls that get you. The scariest times in my car are when I’m just cruising, say in third, doing 30-35mph and I apply 3/4 throttle. Turbo spools up and car gets all kind of sloppy, even though you aren’t really beating on it.

Nope, nobody in the car with me and no other cars on the road at the time. Very fortunate because I spun across the two opposite lanes of traffic.

I did the same without any additional parts. My toe was perfect.. camber not so much

Definitely couldve been worse!!

Absolutely

Holy $#@%! Just saw this. Dude! Glad you're ok!

So.....you're looking like this.

Nah. More like the rears are pokey, but the fronts are outty.

Thank you

Absolutely! Your health is paramount!

All the time and effort you put into building that machine. Damn! That so sucks!!

Ouch, It can happen to any of us. If I have an issues it is usually because I am in the ditch and it was self inflicted. You are walking and talking. Deal with the car later.

That was me on the Tail of the Dragon 2 years ago. I pulled one out my butt and saved it. I thought I was a gonner.

Yeah, that's the only frustrating part

I can always drive my old Eclipse for the time being. Won't be as fun though.

I wish I would have had your skill (luck). :p

Let me ask you this. Did you counter steer into the slide and the car snap back
the other direction? IF so, it was the dang Yaw sensor. There is a video of this on my YouTube channel (Spooler). It is around the 6 min mark. It is the one with the Oops. Yes, I got it on video.

Glad to hear you walked away from this.

With the VCS on. The car will do some weird chit. Going through a turn and the rear starts to drift out. The VCS will apply a rear brake to straighten the car out. 9 times out of 10 when it happens. The car is pointed in the wrong direction. :shakes head: First time it happened to me. I was doing a trackday with an instructor with me. He accused me of hitting the brakes. I told him it wasn't me but the car. He didn't believe me until I showed him the video. My foot never touched the brake pedal. It was still on the gas. From that point on. It has been off. Now I can shut the YAW sensor off completely.

Good Tuesday morning to all of you out there in Radio land

:hello:

I got the Coleman on high... both burners

And I’m headed out to start the lift truck to bring in another pallet of that savory meat

:hello::hello:

There should be some serious sizzle in the air within moments

Good thing I removed the screens out of the kitchen windows awhile back, because they just grease clogged anyhow

Okay, I got a couple of slabs frying. I guess I have a moment to pour out a couple gallons of orange juice to sip off of

And let me get my ladder so I can crawl up in the top of the cupboards to get me a big ‘ole plate. I’m talkng a biggun

Okay. Now a quick dash out he chicken house to grab about 8 dozen eggs..

(Guess I better put some shoes on, as you know how them chickens are)
