Default Re: Ground Control kit reviews

Back with my story of my weekend. First the good news, I was faster. I'm still hitting the camber arms under certain conditions which don't include the track, thank goodness. The sway bar isn't being pushed into the frame seam either so it's slight contact. When I finished my 2nd. heat I was told that my car was trailing some blue smoke. Not much but I packed it in after a track side inspection revealed nothing obvious. Well, it turned out to be "Purple Crack" smoke. My rear Hoosiers were doing a Nascar impression. The only change I made to my car was additional negative camber which caused the rubbing/smoking. Easy fix. (spacers) So, I was faster even with my rear tires braking all around the track. The suspension feels great on track. The tires are lasting what seems forever to me. I'm going to save over a set of tires a year. Talk about a mod that pays for itself. The rubbing also could explain my off track adventures these last 2 events. It's not something I do frequently and it was concerning me a bit. Old and too bold if you get my drift. Nice to know it wasn't that, or stupidity.
