Lorry, Both Ed and Rob have setup their cars with positive camber and negative caster. They are running 28mm bars on the rear and no bar on the front. They have both cut the springs on their coilovers to get the car even lower and they drive fantastic that way. Also, heavier wheels would help too to keep the momentum of the car going. I suggest finding rims that weigh at least 25 pounds a corner. Also, I'd almost exclusively run RE-92s. They're the hot tire that all of us STXers are running this season. You should drill holes in your uppipe to reduce weight and to improve cooling. Oh yeah, one final thing, you should get a 100% tint on your front windshield.

Cheers, Joe
Hmmmm where did that come from?....*confused*

Fortunately, I rarely listen to Joe's advice

In fact, when Joe said we needed to remove the subframe on Tim's car to fit the front anti-roll bar, we went in from the top and removed the engine to get to it just to prove him wrong.
