710s on my car Stock (or with Ohlins) should i expect the outsides to cord 1/2 way through the season (10 events) or would they last the entire season? My front negative camber is -.5 or -.4 depending on the alignment rack (the other is at -1.0 yes lots of cross camber, i will Fix that this year, and my toe out int he rear situation)
thew newer dampeners shouldn't slow down my learning , would they? I would think trying 710s would make my car handle differently which would help me learn more, but maybe it would hinder learning....  At any rate i'm overly eager for the season to start!!!  |
A decent set of dampers is better than a broken/mismatched set. Get the Ohlins if they work with the stock springs which are required for Stock. Plus they will be better for rallycross if you want to do that some more.
710s or Hoosiers at the max stock camber of negative 0.5-1 front will last days, not portions of a season. Expect 2.5 sets per season. Welcome back to TAS.
Matt and Carrie with more camber than that killed a set in 4 days I think.
Toe in is bad. Zero is the best compromise, a bit of out on both ends is best for autocross, but is dicey at the track and eats tires faster.
