I usually just go by max pressure instead of tire temperature because both will be different based on track and weather. It is somewhat inexact, but typically about 4 hard laps will bring the tire te...

Ugh, I apologize. I am so conditioned to measuring drop heights that I thought your drawing and question referred to that. I see that you understand the manual and ride height measuring points. I ...

Edit: disregard for gen 1 & 2 SR3 The measuring points are directly under the high point of the tires for front and rear. Note that the bar that is used (see gen 3 owner's manual) has the rear...

@meatman I run factory camber and factory settings for everything as the starting place for each event, then make minor adjustments in the dampers and aero if needed. I believe Radical has the ca...

Damper settings can make a dramatic difference in handling. I was at Sebring earlier this year and I was bouncing in the braking zone on two turns, causing my rear wheels to lock up. I compensated b...

One tweak you can do which is very easy is to pump out all of the fuel in your car before a session, and add just what you need to finish the session. On a 1500 SR3, my rule of thumb is one gallon fo...

Good question, and a very deep topic. The short answer is driver plus car setup. It makes a huge difference in lap times with a well setup car versus one that is not well setup and this applies to a...

Use a coilover spanner wrench with the car lifted and springs unloaded to adjust preload. I use a Joe's Racing spanner wrench. Note that adjusting preload will affect corner weights, so you should ...

Hi Rod, On my SR3 XX, I had one bad wire after just 25 hours run time. The metal circular conductor that attaches to the coil or the plug (cannot remember which) had broken in half, so it did not mak...

It must be good stuff. When you do bleed, do you notice any tiny bubbles? For Radical, I have always used the Motul RBF 660. I always see two to four tiny bubbles when I bleed the brakes which is b...

That is what I meant. I mispoke. If the pedal went all the way to the floor you would have little or no braking. I was at the track last weekend with my spec racer ford. I had a similar experienc...

The spec from the owner's manual is Motul RBF 660. I would use that, starting with a full flush. The lifing schedule on master cylinder is 8000 km. If your foot is sinking to the floor, I would re...

You are probably headed home by now, so the urgency may have passed. The suggestions on pumping out would be the same thing I would do first. If you don't have a pump out connector installed on your...

For crimping tool, I use Knipex brand for $22. Works well and inexpensive. Attachment : 61QrMwEAQuL._AC_SL1000_.jpg Knipex Tools 10 98 i220 8.75" Ear Clamp Pliers, Front Jaw Only

@rojid Good that you caught that so the metal pieces do not stay inside. It has happened to me. I don't know if there is a reason this happens other than metal fatigue, but I stopped staking them. ...
