My understanding of why California is spelled with a K is because in the Cyrillic alphabet "C" is pronounced like "S" and "K" would the the proper consonant.

I'm running 18x10.7" wide Titan7 T-R10s square with 275-35R18 tires and Motorsports Hardware 15mm spacers. This is on stock struts and springs using SPL LCAs to dial in ~-3° of camber. I'm getting a very small amount of rubbing on my front left wheel liner under HEAVY cornering on-track.

Another gratuitous Quick Jack pic to help convince you. ?

Man, it's a real shame you're nowhere near Lime Rock. They have an infield AutoX course with banking and curbs like a big track and wet skid pad. Sports Car Drivers Association (SCDA) does car control clinics there all 4-seasons. I did my first in snow/sleet/ice. ?

Hey everyone, I'm back.
The break gave me time to re-evaluate the amount of time I spend on this forum and why I'm here. I enjoy tracking my Supra and judging from what I've seen, people are interested in what I share. I'm here for the exchange of knowledge, nothing more. I debated returning...
It's been an awesome summer!
No PN yet, I'll be looking at doing the work in a few weeks after my last few HDPEs for the year.
Hopefully I'll have some coilovers to go on the car as well...?
