    Autocrossing the Squire Sunday...

    Should be interesting. Car is stock save for the PI rear swaybar, 17x8" Bullitt Mustang wheels (with 245/45 Goodyear Eagles), and a Grant GT steering wheel.

    I've done about 10 autocrosses in my protege 5. I'm always in the top 10 cars. That car handles a bit different than the Squire though.

    I was hoping to have the 3.73 trak-loc in, but I doubt that's gonna happen at this rate. The steering ratio is gonna cause me problems. It's going to be difficult to throw the thing around.

    Should be fun as hell to watch though!

        I will. Might be mostly in car, but hopefuly I'll get a bunch of spectator angles too.

              So, that was fun and quite impressive. Looks like street stock parts will be being used for the suspension. Not terribly expensive and really heavy duty tough stuff that will peerform well.

              Planning on getting 1000lb springs and some 50/50 shocks. Pretty cheap stuff, at a total of under 200 bucks!
