If you'd like to use the shop that built the winning SCCA T1 National Championship Corvette for past 5 years, call Kurt at Phoenix Auto Center in Palm,PA 215-679-2232

It's worth the drive. You might be able to set up a saturday appointment if Kurt isn't crew chiefing at a race.

actually I might take Friday off so maybe.....
All I know right now is that the Michellin Pilot Sport Cups are not liking the stock setup. I read that I need at least -1.5 camber for them, but I am also running anotehr set of race tires so I need something that can be a happy medium. I guess talking to the guy that sets up T1 cars would make sense.
Dam it I hate the forum for sending me so far away from my house

Euro Tire in Fairfield like I told you Bob it's off Rt 80 and RT 46 no more than an hour from you.
They use a Hunter machine for the alignment and do four corner balancing. You'll be there 3-5 hours depending on how bad your car is.

JeffI'm having my vette lowered tomorrow so I'll probably need an alignment soon. For someone that rarely does road racing events but likes to carve mountain roads and take turns at highs speed (
), would it be worth taking a drive there?? The shop looks like awesome, it would be fun to take a trip there.

So how do you like your car now that you've had it to Phoenix Auto Center?
I talked with Kurt late this afternoon and he spoke highly of you

I knew you'd be happy. You mentioned in the C5 General thread that John Heinricy drives Phoenix cars. He also sent his personal '96 GS down to Kurt from Michigan to have Kurt set it up.
