Now how the heck did anyone know that? Thanks everyone! My birthday agenda includes picking up 22 C6 Hardbars, 20 brake hats and taking them all to the anodize shop, how exciting! However, we are going out for dinner tonight here (check out the dinner menu):

Gary we know everything


BTW - 3 clicks on the rebound and WOW. I cant believe how much fine tuning can be done with your Penske setup. I have 5 more track days to log my settings.

Was that 3 clicks more or less rebound? Soon we are going to try a different spring setup that removes the sway bars entirely. Less weight. less stiction, more compliance, but with the same total roll stiffness. I'll let you know!

Happy Birthday!
Are you going to try The Glen anytime soon?
When are you doing a track day at NHIS?
