    Falken Azenis I enter that turn on the threshold of braking. Just a little lock up, and when you feel lock up I usually release the brake a bit and unwind the steering wheel. If I remember right that was my fastest time.

    Yes the corner weighting definitely improved my car.

    I will be using one next year along with some Polyyrethane Bushings.

    But also remember I will be going with more camber in the front (approx 3 degrees) and less in the rear (approx 1.5 degrees).

    yes I will be adjusting them when I get there. I am looking for a 2nd car so this will be my race only and some daily driving car.

    I'm looking at the Progress Group or Skunk2 camber kits.
