The wisest course of action would be some quick releases to help get the hood off as quickly as possible.
Scott, where was First On Race Day?
Oh, there it is.

Rear tires larger than the fronts will generally make understeer worse.
What rear axle does it have? If it's got the 8.8 rear that they put in the gt's, a used track-loc factory posi diff would be very helpful and it should be rebuilt with fresh clutch discs.

Thanks Drew.
Danny Shields drove the car. We have one more test autocross before the big show.
We asked him about more gas in the tank and 275s on the back and he said, "Yes".
The front end really seemed to stick well on Sunday, but the back did feel very, very light and squirrelly. I'm thinking Danny's suggestions make sense. And since we are testing, we can always adjust after Danny drives it again at Zephyrhills.
I think it has a Turbo Coupe rear with 3.73 gears. Rob would know for sure, I just do paint.
I'm spoiled by ABS. I think it needs that more than anything else.
Tod and Danny drove it so they could give a better response; I was merely a passenger (thanking god that I own a Boxster

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Thanks Angie.
If you could command the Hondas to stay home,
we'll do a lot better at The Challenge.
