I’ve never actually run Hedge Hollow before. Left the KC area right before it opened. Unfortunately probably won’t be able to make it out this year. Work schedule won’t let me off long enough to travel too far. Probably will just be doing laps at Gateway.

Still waiting for my alignment appointment date. But after doing some basic trig, it seems like my current static camber is -2.25* front and back after lowering roughly 1 inch. The front camber plates are currently still set in their center position. Unfortunately I didn't take measurements...

I think I was on mobile and read through too quickly, didn't catch that you were on stock arms. I wish I tested camber range and then indexed it on the adjustment plate while I had the front apart but didn't have ball-end Allen keys on hand and TBH I was pretty done with the car at that time...

That's honestly great to hear. I'll have see how much my alignment guy can get. How much do most people aim for with camber front and rear? It's a McPherson car so I imagine on the high end for the front? I know the GR86/BRZ and CTR guys run massive numbers on the front. Might still err on the...

Is it because the car is lowered? Most references I’ve seen for the -2.7 number is at stock height. I don’t think I saw much camber gain from free compressing the suspension with the springs off the car but I imagine there’s other variables depending on static height.

How are you getting -3.6 front with Verus camber plates and oem shock? Most resources I've read state that past -2.7 the roller bearing top hat boot starts binding against the reinforcement ribs of the strut tower. Do you have lower control arms?

Thanks for the tip, wish it had a hex at the nose and didn't require the jam nut method but won't argue with the price. Prob will grab a 92 mm set over winter. TBH I really like how the car feels right now. Pretty dang neutral, enough that I can "steer" with the throttle in long sweepers on...

I am however my work schedule might screw me over. Might not get to run until June. But I suppose it's ok, still need to bleed the brakes and mull over whether or not I want a front sway bar.

Well finally got the wheels and tires mounted. Random thoughts: Ended up getting CRS in 275/40/18 to save a bit of cash Over RE71RZ in 295/35/18. I'm still learning the car, not looking to put down PBs just yet. I knew CRS run wide but I was still surprised how wide these are. Makes MPSS look...

Glad you had fun and made it. Which "not-straight" are you talking about lol? The front "straight" at the pits or "roller-coaster?" Turn 1 always made me pucker up in the S2000 as it dives down from the off camber apex. Still unsure if I'm making it out to Ozarks this year. Work might be tight...

HKS HAS kit and Verus camber plates. I plan on getting coilovers in the future however didn't feel like forking over the cash just yet since I recently purchased this car. This is a stop gap measure to get the car lowered and to get more in-board clearance to run 275+ width front tires. Also I...

Great news, got everything installed. Bad news, left one of the sensors loose when I first started the car so it threw a code and is in limp mode, lol. At least I could finally confirm fitment. Clears by a decent bit, granted MPSS run super narrow.

I can see that. I believe OIR has a motorcycle lay out too, but it looks like they cut out a lot of the tight switch backs for that reason. Maybe was hating on the track a little too much. I think it's fun enough if you take it at a weekend pace. But it's not a track I have the balls to try to...

Ozarks isn’t called the “Missouri-ring” for nothing. I’ve obviously never driven the Nurburgring in personbut it definitely feels like it from the simulator. You don’t really get the feeling of the elevation changes until you drive it in person as the road falls off from under you when you go...

Don't blame you. Wheel fitment on the S2000 is a nightmare, especially if you're trying to fit big chungus 17x10s.

That looks like the self clearancing my S2000 did to its liners. As long as it's not catching the hood/fender I'm happy. I've pretty much decided to go with 295/35/18s and have my 18x11s sitting in the garage. Just waiting on tires, and free time to finish up this spring install. My S2000 for...

RIP Heartland Park, it was my local while I was in KC. Now they have Hedge Hollow, but I haven't been able to make it out there yet. If you're in STL area then I might see you around. Gateway is the local but I have friends in KC and Chicago so I've been spending more time tracking with them at...

Be safe at Ozarks. If it's your first time take it real easy, it's an extremely sketchy track. Last time I was out there was in NASA HPDE2 and we have 4 cars crash over the weekend. Almost every corner is some combination of blind, off camber, or down hill and there's almost 0 runoff. I've only...

Yes, I was referring to WWT/Gateway. It looked pretty uninteresting to me at first but I was surprised and actually enjoy it quite a bit. It flows well for a roval and short laps mean you get a lot of repetition for practice. Even in my S2000 the straights don't feel too long and I can carry a...

Lol, the spring perch came off with three good wacks of the mallet after I finally got the knuckle spreader in and took the shock off the car. Couldn't get good leverage on the sweet spot with the shock still on the car because the brake caliper was in the way. Hopefully I didn't bugger the...
