Yes, I have to wait till Tuesday to get the info hopefully as he was out of town. It can't be a whole lot though I would think.

And your camber readings were?

-1.7 in the from for me and -2.2 in the rear. I think I am staying pat with the current settings.

I emailed Swift in Ontario, CA and they said that they've been told by customers that camber kits are not needed. However, Swift says they recommend a camber kit with any kind of height change so I'm going to go with it.

So, this weekend is another York Road Cruise. The plan is mostly the same as last time.

There will be a group meeting at Hooters around 9am, departing around 9:30, but if you want to go directly there, we'll meet at Starbucks in Shrewsbury around 10am.

We'll depart there at 11am, drive down the length of York Road, and then stop at Hunt Valley Town Center for a rest and to get the group together. We will then pick up Ashland Road and head around the reservoir, picking up Loch Raven Dr for a quick jaunt, and then ending once again at Hooters.

I also have a big dam announcement to make tomorrow, so I hope we get a good turnout.

No input from PA folks who said they knew better roads to drive on down there?

To be honest, I haven't really reached out. Shame on me, I know. :(

Been ridiculously busy lately.

That's a lot of rear camber.

Only slightly more than I used to run on my Civic in high school:rofl2:

I think it's also barely out of spec for the Z

Still seems like a lot to me. On the rear I'd want to be less than 2 degrees so I could actually put power down. Though I guess with the staggered setup you need a good bit of negative camber to fight all that understeer. sigh.

No, but it cornered pretty well with 235's all around and so much camber. That sucker was a blast to drive.

I think factory spec only goes to like 1.6* or something. I dunno, I was always more concerned with getting power down coming out of a turn than on a straight line, but I might think differently if I had a Mustang:rofl2:

Don't admit to that. Steve will harass you non-stop about trading your car in for one.:rofl2:
