Lol.
Also in other news. I've been bottoming out my control arms on the body and subframe. Bumpstops are there.
Delrin ftw?
Going to trim the body.
Anybody ever seen this? Stock xida bump stops, 400 sprig rates.

Emilio would shame you for mentioning spring rates with respect to travel issues

Just one. But I hit that side harder at ORP.
Spring rates shouldnt matter yes, but I like to get all of the information out there.
I'm going to trim the body and put some paint on the arms. I doubt I'll hit curbs hard enough at Laguna though.
ORP has some ~4-5 inch drop offs that you can slam into if you hit the wrong line.

So don't hit the wrong line? I don't understand if you are driving flat out you should always be on the perfect line. People will get out of your way as they know you are driving a miata which is the perfect car and you can do no wrong.

The red curbs behind the MotoGP curbing at Laguna are control arm bombs.

I've seen you at the track. "Yeah I built this, held up to dual driving just fine!"

I know it did, and that's a great source of pride for you because you built it. It's a source of pride for me that my car has held up as well as it has... but I didn't build anything, just put it together, with help. ha.
