    Why A6's instead if R6's?

    With so many threads about people using A6's instead of R6's at road race tracks I'm just wondering Why? I would guess the A's would fall off performance wise much faster then the R's. Is there something I am missing? I know the A's heat up faster but do they keep their integrity? What about the...

    Best shocks for an 01 ACR

    Easy, for best performance buy a set of Motons. I personally know they work great on the 2001 ACR (choice of PMUM) :headbang:

    Will a 305/35R18 fit on the front?

    I fit a pair of 335/30-18 on the front of my 2000, you just had to make sure the wheels were pointed directly straight before you open and closed the hood, wouldn't open/close if the wheel were even slightly turned. Fine once the hood was shut.

    Video at the track

    Mid track is perfect line at #9, like I tell my students stay out, stay out, stay out and just when you think it's time to turn into the apex I tell them to stay out another beat, turn in too early will put you in the dirt. You don't need to scrub speed as soon as you do your steering input by...

    Yay or nay: run Pilot SS on the front and PS2's tires on the rear?

    Talk about 2 different kinds of grip, in a Gen IV ACR I corded the fronts and replaced them but did not replace the worn Pilot Cup rears, coming out of turn #9 at WSIR at about 100 mph my fronts bit but my rears spun because of the wear and I did a 1080, 3 complete spins but never left the track...

    Anyone know if 315 hooisers will fit on stock ACR front rims?

    There is not such thing as "too much" tire on the front. I've run as big as 335s on the front, and yes they fit, on a Gen II as long as the wheels are straight when you open the hood.

    Anyone ever go up against this car? If so what was the outcome?

    Re: Boys check the data..The Viper has faster MPH..and with the right hook up on tire Watch out for the Brabus, Renntech and new MBK 1,000 mods, they put down between 800-1,000 hp.

    power steering cap off

    Re: per str cap Happens to me all the time when road racing, simplest solution is take a pair of 10"-12" channel locks and tighten the crap out of it, it never fell off again.

    Big Brakes on the GTS.

    I've been tracking for a dozen years in a Gen II with Stoptech brakes and Brakeman 3 pads, I have never hear of the slow to start procedure on thing, what I am sure of is you NEVER stop completely during the process of bedding, the reason behind this is you leave pad material on the rotor and...

    Big Brakes on the GTS.

    Go back to Slovenia :D Bed the pads in process: 100-5 4x 80-5 4x 60-5 10x The brakes should be smoking a little which is good, you will also experience some "green fade" this is normal your new pads are now bedded. DO NOT come to a full stop and drive around for about 5 miles for them to...

    Looking for brake advice

    I had the complete Stoptech Big Brake package on my 2000 (no ABS) and it worked great on the track and off, 355mm (14.2") front and 13" in the rear, fit under the 18" wheels just fine, ya didn't need a proportioning valve or anything.
