Thumbs up Nex Coil Overs Hit The Track!

August 20th I entered into the Solo2 Sacramento CUP w/ SCCA. I didnt do too bad, w/ a best time of 57.119 seconds. There were some bad *** cars there, but from the front wheel drive cars in my class, i dont think i did bad. I wont know the final results of my placing untill they post it @

(Round #7, August 20th)




The Nex coil overs definately made a world of difference for me. There was 1 other lancer there, and he got a 57.8xx for his best lap. Both of our first times out there, and he was practically bone stock, except for rims and tires...

My buddy went and got a 55.xxx in his Honda S2000. Was a fun day!

I probably would have done better if I had some better tires (WANLI = CHEAP) I was sliding everwhere... but all in all I had a great time, and the coil overs seemed to be great! Better tires can buy 2 seconds on a course, and practice always helps!

Here is a video of my final run... Consider Nex suspension, I have plenty of miles on them, and now some track time... no complaints!


My final run
= 8.0mb

A little movie I made. (includes inside shots of the drive, and my buddy drivin his S2000.
=58mb

Was such a great time, best time I ever had in my car! I am a little over 2" in the front, and just below 2" in the back. They will be having more runs throughout the summer at the Stockton fairgrounds, would be sweet if we could get some EvoM peeps out there to run thier lancers.

Its so late, i need to sleep.

Run em up!

Nice run. It looks like I made a good choice in buying the same coilovers. That is what I call a good review.

You should start a new thread in the regional forums to get people to go with you. That should get you more people that live nearer to you.

The track times are now at the first link in my first post. I placed 15th out of 21 in the street tire class... If you look, you will see that Most of the cars were RWD, and 1/2 which are Corvettes
