Checked and corrected my alignment with my hubstands preparing for Watkins Glen next week. Ended up with 1/32" (1mm) toe-in each rear wheel, zero toe up front, and -3.2 degrees of negative camber.

Yep. I was replacing the rotors anyway since the MX72s trashed them at my last track day, so I figured I’d throw the ducts on while I was in there. Install takes like 10 min if you already have the rotors off.

How level does the floor have to be for those hub stands? I like the idea of them but my garage floor has a slight slope to it

Honestly it has to be pretty flat and level to work right. The instructions don't really give a tolerance.

You could reach out to Paco Motorsports. They're really friendly and I'm sure they'd have a better answer.

The main thing they talk about in the instructions is the car rolling away lol.

Installed front and rear eibach sway bars and the verus brake master cylinder brace. Gonna see how it all feels at a track day tomorrow.
Thoughts about the MCB in particular?

Yeah that’s what I’m worried about, if I leave my creeper unattended and don’t put a wrench or something behind one of the wheels it’ll definitely roll itself out into the street

I chuckled at the thought of my dumb ass chasing my car on hubstands rolling into the street...but clearly that would really suck lmfao

Lol, I could definitely see myself trying to jump in and hit the breaks to try to stop it too. I’ll reach out to Paco and see what they say, thanks

Ah Paco! Haven't heard about them in years. I purchased a set of seat rails early in my MX5's life and was the very last time my wife rode in the car :) Combined with the lowered suspension it made the stupid little car that much stupider and littler. Paco has a bunch of stuff for making off road MX5s which is pretty humorous to look through.

I've been really impressed with the hubstands, that's for sure.
