looks like fun...that's a lot of body roll. Is that normal for your car?

Yeah, those pics are the most extreme. They were taken while I was transitioning around a pivot cone and/or in the middle of a slalom. I need better springs/struts/shocks, then I'm doing the whole panhard bar/torque arm by the end of the summer/fall (probably in time to put the car up for the winter).

Do you have a rollbar in your vert? It looks like you have your helmet on, so must be more than just parade laps, but I don't see anything other than a light bar? Who are you running with and where?
Oh, I agree 100% on the suspension. In a couple of open track and auto-x events, I was tons faster in my MM set-up 96 mystic with 300 rwhp, than I was in my 03 with over 500 rwhp and only springs and c/c plates.
PS, sweet roush!

Where are you located? You can check out www.scca.org (http://www.scca.org) for a region near you. If you are in this area (NE Ohio) check out www.noraracing.net (http://www.noraracing.net) a local club that does autocrosses at Eastlake Captains parking lot. I ran with them last year when they had events close to my house. Now I run with a PA group. The site for that group is www.steelcities-scca.org (http://www.steelcities-scca.org).
It's fun.

What did you have done? I have acquired "Mathis" and will be writing a check to Maximum Motorsports on my fox I just don't know for how much yet ;-)

Well, I just got back from my first track experience and detroyed my ailing struts in the process. Looks like some Bilsteins or Konis are in my future along with some springs.
BTW: the track day was a blast.
