Hi folks: Joined the site to get local advice on tuning garages, suspension setups, and driving events.
I run a black '02 rex with a tune from the now defunct F1Dyno with ~280HP and ~260 TQ @ the engine on an AWD dyno. Full exhaust, hi flow fuel pump, UTEC piggy back, 18 PSI, Green Stuff pads, short throw, K&N, OZ racing 17s. Car needs a suspension, and maybe a refresh on the tune. (knock light flickers now and then on WOT depending on gas in tank and if its a wednesday...and I'm getting too used to the power. Dreaming of a used RS4.).
I spent time in the SCCA Glen region in upstate NY and collected a regional autox championship, and a couple runner ups. Also ran in an SCDA event at Watkins Glen (some of the best $$ I've every spent, did cook the rotors). Kids came along and out went the motorsports for 8 years. Ran in an Audi event in NH last summer (the S5 and R8 are both nice rides...) Aiming for a NASA event back at the Glen in October this fall, but only if I rework the suspension first. Looking forward to ideas for suspensions that are function first, and form second (don't need a 3 inch drop that can't win autox events or set fast times on the track while driving to and from work day in and day out).
Looks like a strong forum. Nice job putting this community together.
