I work too late to be able to participate in the SE36 race, but last night for shits I tried to build an M3 to as close to the actual SE36 rules as I could. Does anyone have any idea what the spring rates are on the Spec suspension? I can't believe how much time I spent looking in every possible place online and couldn't find the answer anywhere. I did find that the sway bars are 27mm in the front and 24mm rear. The kit btw is the H&R E36 RSS Club Sport Coil-over Kit, if anyone out there is handy enough to find the info.

What are your guys' approximate lap times in your Goon Mans cars? I just want to make sure I'm in the ballpark, and further tune if necessary...

Good times - almost won that race solely on the fact that I was the only one that didn't roll. I was thinking we could do a Spec E30 race some time. I made one out of an E30 M3 but gave it spec-based spring rates/sway bars & 325i gear ratios and it's pretty much spot on. I ran some laps around Road Atlanta & Infineon and they were comparable to actual SE30 cars.

Jabs if you're interested I've managed to build a SpecE30 based on the NASA rules, complete with 325i gear ratios & the actual spec spring rates. I can send you the tune if you want to check it out.

I just wish I could follow an AI closely through a corner without worrying about getting brake checked. I feel like in the higher PI races they do it purely to be dicks.

I'm still new to the whole tuning thing and I don't have much confidence in the cars I build, so knowing that they work for people other than myself makes me pretty happy! Not sure what the brake settings are, but the first time I drove it I plowed into some people. Once I got used to that I started to rip through the field.

So my pictures on the Forza site just magically reappeared, here's a couple pics that pretty much sum up Wednesday's race for me: Lap 2 Lap 3 Lap 4 Lap 5 I finally started to get it What I learned: I never liked Sedona Full, and I REALLY don't like it on reverse. Turn 2 is just the worst. Still had lots of fun though, hopefully I can do that more.

I'm a bit duck footed so my right foot doesn't rotate very far that way, so I've just been having my foot sideways hitting the brake with my heel and rotating my ankle to hit the gas with my toe.

Jabs' internet connection https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz85hza5WCQ After the initial impact my engine was 99% dead so I couldn't get out of the way before the head-on. After I pitted everything was fixed except my aero and I was lapping ~3-4 secs a lap slower than the leaders, then as I was getting lapped again I got rearended, making me feel even more like crap. Oh well, that's racing. I look forward to redeeming myself next week.

So if you drop an S50 into the E30, add race exhaust, and cut power by 50% you have a 170hp car that sounds a little bit more like a SpecE30
