It works perfect under most forums, but not here. I will attach them this time, but it takes to much time to do this every ...

Well I had plans of getting the racing cheer, harnesses and the mounting points this week, so that I could get the car done and get it over to sandblasting and then to painting. But that doesn’t happen this week, the Italians (OMP people) had gone on holiday so my seat isn’t done yet, what I have he...

Let's invert the question: Why should it be bigger? On a track, couldn't you get better lap times by having slightly softer spring rates, and using a sway bar to pick up in the roll stiffness?
