Thanks for all the help on the set up tips and advice from everyone... it paid off.

Almost too well! The first race I was sandbagging because the car temp was getting into the range I don't like and still destroyed the 4 stock class and pulled off a win with a half lap lead on the second place car. I was actually running tight on the ass of a Toyota celica running in the modified class ( they run slicks and lots of camber).

Second race was the same story with another boring easy win

The thrid race was a lot of fun running tight with my class boxed in with 3 restarts due to accidents and I lost that race by 6 inches.

The feature race was also a close race where I ran second for 19 laps until I pulled ahead running on the outside of turn 4 on the final lap for a half car length win and my first throphy!

RE: the camera - tape videocams don't like being subjected to the pounding in cars... one of the big reasons I went to solid-state...

The front SHOULD be lowered to match...but that would require different springs that don't exactly meet the rules. I can't complain about the handling anymore...the car works great.
