The plans start for next season
After Ferrari club, I decide the season is over. It’s getting cold and the track day opportunities are limited. Time to get ready for next season.
First thing is to see if I can better the push. I do some reading, talk to the experts, and decide I need to increase the rear spring rate, and remove the front sway bar. All the guys running these cars have a similar set up. I was also advised to align the front with a wee bit of toe out. I have found some stiffer loaner springs, so that’s a low cost mod.
Over the winter I decide to attend SCCA’s drivers school and work towards my race license. Now car prep gets serious. I have lots to do and have started the long list of all the money I am about to spend. Hey, can’t say I am not doing my part for the economy.
A total work over of the car is in order. Hubs, bearings, brakes, suspension are all getting attention. I found an offset poly bushing I can put in the front that will give me more caster, which will improve the push, so it’s going in when I do the rest of the work. Play date scheduled in Febuary for the repairs and upgrades. Now, it’s time to order parts.
