MATG was fun this year. Got to see a few old faces, met some new faces. TNRooster3, ethaniscool, JamieH, Doppelganger, Bryan, good seeing you guys again.
Definitely focused more on driving than I did last year, got 9 runs in on US129, compared to just 2 last year. Car feels great on the tōge, such an improvement over the previous setup that it's not even possible to compare the two. I could throw it into pretty much any corner at any speed and it would handle it just fine. Got to experiment a bit with shock adjustment and tire pressures to see how each affects the car. Really began to understand how each component affects your driving style and car's characteristics. The setup I felt most confident with towards the end was 15/10 clicks on the shocks and 28psi in the tires, which I worked up to from 6/4 clicks and 25psi. I was probably pushing at 75-80% for most of my runs, but it is insane how much further I can push it compared to before. One of the notes I took away from the weekend is - I could do with another set of springs in 700/400 sometime in the future. For most of the 318 corners 550/350 were perfectly fine, but I felt like a few of them would have benefited from something stiffer. I may have had different feedback if my ride height was higher, though. Currently at 4.75"R/4.50"F.
Anyways, on to the photos.
