Trans-Am Testing At Normans

Postby Austin » Sun Nov 11, 2018 7:00 pm

Sunday morning Norman & I took about 4 hours setting up me mustang, went from a very jumpy car to a nice handling easy to drive but not as fast as Normans. I think he as holding a few speed ticks from me. I did the RichD setup for the shoes, Just getting them to set flat made a big differences

My car might have been a little faster, but yours looked way better.
Nice pictures too!

Great looking cars and track!
"Flat" shoes make a HUGE difference both in power/speed and handling!
The marker trick is a very nice way to how they are patterning in a hurry! :)
