M0nk3y's Official SCCA STX Build

Damn, nice gains!

Thanks, I'm really happy with the gains. With that being said I have a revised map and it seems like some serious improvements have been made. We'll see what the dyno says about that.

Also, on a happy note. I was able to get a partial sponsorship from Diffsonline, and have now placed an order for a Custom Ramp, 3 Clutch LSD!

Any thoughts on replacing subframe bushings while I'm there? Thinking AKG mounts

Congrats on the LSD, should accompany the chassis well. AKG, powerflex, turner, etc. Run solids if you dont mind

Thanks, it was really the limiting factor last year

Per STX rules, I need to maintain the same amount of rubber material and not increase metal content. Aka I cannot add solid metal bushings.

How's the install on these? I guess I should look into that.

So, I suck at updating this.

Anyways, was at NCM Motorsports park for the SCCA Match Tour.

I was running on older Hankook Tires compared to the new "hot" tires, but I thought I had a chance. This was my second event of the year with the new headers and diff. So I still have to learn how to drive the car.

The front section of the course going through the first slalom was giving me issues the whole weekend, constantly left time.

Weekend class results on Saturday:



Out of first by 0.241 seconds

Oh well, I had the chance to shoot a fast time and didn't do it. The car was capable and I just fell short. Certainly a learning experience.

I qualified in the club shootout on Sunday (top 9-16 in PAX for my heat of 48) and was able to have some extra fun.

Made it through the first round (video below) with a stupid fast time. Close to a second over my fastest time from Saturday. Chalk this up to learning experience, course rubbering in...etc.

Second round I had a nice event that ended up not so well.
