I'm with you there dude! The camber under compression really helps the quarters. All I cared about was leveling out the angles of the arms... LOL

With the aero somewhat sorted out, the drop knuckles installed, and a fresh string alignment - it was time to take this thing out for a rip! I hadn't drifted in quite a long time, I believe a year or so had elapsed, so I was a bit anxious. There was a venue somewhat local to me in VA called Spirit JP that was blowing up and had a cool meihan-style layout and decided this would be the move!





Took a few laps for me to get used to driving again and by the afternoon sessions I was feeling pretty good!



The entry was really fun! the sensation of "floating" the car off throttle and dropping from third to second was thrilling



I hadn't quite realized it, but I hadn't set the ride height exactly to how it was before. the car was MUCH lower now, but I couldn't raise it from the coilovers, the only way to get the car up is to remove a few degrees of camber! The 17" wheels look so big with the kit



In the middle of the afternoon Spirit JP held a drift games where you had to park your car as close to a set of boxes mid drift. I ended up taking second place!



Here's a clip of the entry, and a clip of the night sessions where it was pitch black!







The height of the car combined with the aero made for some weird damage! I ended up shaving down my side skirts by about 30mm and completely flattening one of my canards!
