Anyone got pics? I'm curious to see how far the back wheels were coming off the ground!

Yep, gallery is up at:

Just added another one for you (was experimenting with long exposure and filters to add a bit of motion blur... I didn't like the results too much) so you can see the roll

Man, when using a slower shutter speed you need to pan (move the camera with the car, trying to keep the car in the same place in the viewfinder) this keeps the car in sharp focus and the background goes blurry. Experiment with shutter speed to get desired blur.

Hmmm will try, although these hands aint too steady thanks.

Here is a video of the lexus cutting sick on the 2nd layout.....

Doesn't take much panning dude!

Sweeeet pics!

[mullett]

AHAHAHAHAHA

*sobs*

I nearly died!

[Mole]

Thats... quite a bit of travel.

[mullett]

Good thing it's got lots of travel: otherwise the wheels would be off the ground!

[Mole]

Considered putting some stiffer sways on it? I know its just a daily but it'd make a world of difference...

[mullett]

To be honest I'm not sold on the effectiveness of swaybars. They stop roll, yes, but they reduce the whole point of 'independent' suspension. The next step would be some springs, 1in out of the ride height would make a huge difference to the roll center and COG. But I must resist f*king with it! This is the daily, and money spent there is money better spent elsewhere. Plus I'd be worried about ruining the ride/NVH etc...Although for the cost of a set of King springs, it'd almost be worth trying...

Rudi does NOT approve.
