I would think that would rocket you right into SM2 though wouldn't it? Would definatly up you to an SPx class in COM too (requiring a roll bar). Not sure it's worth the class hit or the $$$.

Default cool part

yea that will solve the camber issues for sure, but it's not legal in SP. That will bump you into SM2, and group 3 I believe.

SM2 definitely, but I had HPDE guys in mind too.

I'm going to email him about the racing bearings to see what's different.

That would solve the problem of not being able to get enough negative camber up front... Nice to see that they make it for both early and late C4's. I can only get -1.8 deg on the LF and -2.2 on the RF and I have -2.5 on the rear. The rears have so much negative camber that it looks like something is broken and my plastic fender liners have been rubbed clean off from tire contact but I have never turned such good lap times until I set it up that way with the Hoosier R6's... Maybe if I could get more negative camber up front with these...

I too would like to know what the difference is in the wheel bearings. I just replaced mine a few events ago and my RR is gone again already.

I talked to Louis G ( LG's son) He said GM made racing bearings but only race teams could purchase them. Now GM in now working to make more racing parts, bearings and other things available to the public, people like us.
