88 MR2 SC

Springs arrived :)

Really learned something today... adjustments to the suspension aren't really noticeable until you take the car to the limit... I had my Koni yellow set at 1.5 turns from soft... my car was OK on the track but then I decided to try 2 turns from soft... harder... car became a little harder to handle, even under breaking... so I then went to 1 turn from soft and the whole suspension came alive... It was better under cornering, braking and especially predictable in a power slide... way more fun to drive... Next track day I will play with tire pressure and might even bring a temp gauge... Best lap of the day was 1:36.45 , clock wise Red zone is over 1g... maximum 1.2g
