Ok since the cat is out of the bag....Muellerized JIC's valved for 9k f and 8k r springs. I wanted stiffer than a standard street set up, but I didn't want a full race set up. I believe this will be and ideal middle of the road setup. I got them just before Greg got the PICs, otherwise I may have reconsiderd. Oh well. I think these will work great for me.

Brendan...SHHHH no one is listeneing to you. Remember...I am in SM. I need all the help I can get.

I thought Mueller usually did a higher rear rate. IMO, you could've gone higher without compromising street ride. Mine are 12k,10k and they ride smooth..like stock when they're clicked down to full soft. JIC's tend to be bouncier than some others though..
Did you buy them new or used?
What kind of wheel/tire combo are you going to run? The Wrx's were pretty fast this past year in SM running 265 V710's. I was WAY under tired trying to run with them on my hard 245 AO32R's Hopefully I will level things out a bit this year with my setup.

That's what I was going to say, 9k/8k is an odd setup to say the least. The JIC's I had on my car last year were 10k/12k, and my new setup is stiffer than that. They are still very streetable though.

I would like to bring my car out and run an event or two in SM this year. Not sure if the race schedule will permit it though.

*cough* I need a co-driver *cough*

Oh, btw -- over the weekend holiday my cell phone died on me. It does not look like Verizon will be able to recover the phone numbers either (bastards!!!) So if you all could shoot me a pm with your number that would be great -- thanks!

I already told you I would co-drive, where's the SCCA schedule at????? You're in BSP right? I'd like to take my car out and see how it stacks up in SM, and to get my sponsors some more exposure.

Yeah, sorry i'm lazy and haven't looked. sorry :P

yeah i understand, is it possible to sign up to run in more than one class at autox? I have never seen that done...

Yeah, I'd take your car out if I were you too. In fact, being the nice guy that I am, I will even drive you car for you! How about that?!! All the work and no mess! heh

The SCCA and CSSC schedule aren't out yet.
I've been waiting to see how many I can do and still do most of the NASA Oh/In events. Hopefully they won't conflict too much.

I'm sure the SCCA would take my money for more than one class. Maybe Danny would let me drive his vette....

Who wants to run the Winged Warrior event on May 12th and then go to Putnam on the 13th? I wish they didn't conflict...but it'd be fun to do them both the same weekend.

April 20-22 at Mid-Ohio is the first NASA event. Start saving money and making plans now
