Re: G8 Suspension and Handling Upgrades (Pedders, Pfadt, Nitto)

Took my car to Amery Auto X this weekend to enjoy the fruit of my labors with the new suspension setup. Had a blast learning how to drive my car, and I approve of the new setup

Here is a video of a couple of my runs from the event:

Notice the idiot who drives on the course in first video.

I didn't want to do the extra work of switching the front wheels

Didn't really care about the looks or 1 inch size difference. the weight is virtually the same.
