ARSCCA AutoX 8/22/10

Took the Merkur out for it’s first AutoX, learned quite a few things:

1: too little boost for the track, forced me to stay in the top of 2nd and hampered my times beyond a point since I couldn’t use 3rd, but I still had alot of tires, brakes, and suspension left to go

2: negative camber on this car is not a bad thing, in fact it makes it twitchy as hell which helps since there is no power steering

3: stiff rear springs with softer front springs = fail, I have a coilover conversion kit from Ground Control I’ll be changing the fronts over to this fall
