Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

[razorlab]

you'll want to route the lower belt through your lap belt hole on the driver side, otherwise you might submarine in a crash

Hah, was about to point out the same thing. Also want the same on the side by the trans tunnel.

Yes u r right, I need to get it done finally

Anyway, U guys run 0 toe front or slightly negative, like -0.05 side etc? I got recommended slight out on the front lately.

I personally run zero in front.

Depends on who you’re talking to. For most of us in HPDE, zero toe up front is fine. It‘s more stable and less prone to snap oversteer. I personally love having some toe out up front - coming from a S2000. That thing would start turning as soon as you started looking in the direction you wanted to go ? Naturally the Supra feels much better for me now. Since you’ll actually be racing, go for it! The other racers will. You likely already know how to counter-steer well enough to enjoy the benefits of a quicker turn in response.

Make sure you go negative toe in the rear for high-speed stability & ability to push harder and faster.

If you talk to people with FWD cars, they tend to put some toe out (positive) on their rear wheels. It helps them rotate the rear into the corners & steering the front towards the apex (and reducing understeer).

I think rear is supposed to be slight toe IN not OUT unless I'm missreading something and U ment negative camber in the rear?

More like a bigger lip... no tunnels or anything... weak offering. I run their cold air duct tho.
AJ Hartman testing his splitter, with very nice tunnels, should be out on the market soon with canards:

Was really a lot of fun and very educational. Def need to do as many as I can

That second blue one from the left is quite a looker ?

Yeah I said too much as usual ?. Neg toe in the rear and zero to a pinch toe out up front is my preference. I was surprised how much better the car felt for me….

Nice bunch of owners as well ?

FARA’s HPDE Academy & Chin might be worth considering as well. I really like em

Sebring is also a must do, if you haven’t done it already ?

I would add Hooked on Driving to this list.
