Alot to answer so little time. I was speaking with David and other friends and we think the migration from the SE's "sport tuned" suspension to koni single adjustable,H&R sport springs,SVT front sway bar and 17" wheels makes my SE "VERY RESPONSIVE" to driver input. I am use to having to anticipate the bodyroll last year with the SE tunning and wait for the car to respond. Now when I flinch she turns! I have no problems with nice 4 wheel drifts in sweepers car felt very responsive to driver input just the transitions in the slaloms kill me. I understand I will need to change my driving style to a "smoother" flow on the course. Like I was telling David (00 STV)
I have a greater respect for the SVT
and the performance of a well setup autocross car now.
On the times I figure how much by percentage
a given driver was faster or slower to me over the course of rhe season and use the average to offset bad days. Since we never run the same course twice it is hard to scale
you performance over the course of a season.
The figures are close .4 of a second in autocross time this is forever but for my first full year they are close for goverment work.
also I still do not have my rear swaybar yet.
Bat's still on backorder! on their 22mm.from what I understand as as a rule of thumb with a SVT 19mm front and a 22 mm back this should increase my oversteer. Which I am a little worried about. I am now running SVT 19mm front and Stock SE 18mm in rear. Hoping this will stabalize the body movement in the
transitions and not upset the balance of the car. I think I addressed all your questions.
thanks for the two cents!
Vern
