bump gong into turn 2
Jun 3^rd, 2021 at 1:17pm

I did a track day last week with my Racecar and WOW . Its probably because I have not raced at Mission for a while or driven it with an aggressive suspension but man O man is that bump coming into 2 gotten worse or is it just me???
I swear my car bounces into the air , LOL Grin

Are there any plan to address the multiple bumps around the track ? or are we waiting on cash flow.

1500lb springs and .5" suspension travel tends to ride a little rough. I have the same problem with the fork lift, it's hell on the spine Roll Eyes
