I'm going to work on softening my spring rates this week.
I'll more than likely continue this futile effort to build a competitive STR 370z.

Having some real rubber under these Z's makes a work of difference in my opinion. I'd like to see the results of what would happen if you ran the STR class, then during the same autocross put on some big sexy tires, and ran it for time only. Your thoughts on the difference would be enlighting at the very least I think.
