    The above is very good advice and consistent with our experience in progressively moving to working the suspension harder with lateral gs and travel using Hoosiers and more cornering force.

    Edit -- Andy makes an interesting point. We've heard for years that the rates we run on the TR8 (600/300) and Z (500/250) are too high, especially by the Z guys. I don't think so, at all. In fact, I think we could go higher with better shocks. So, Andy, what do you think is too high on a strut based car? Some of it is a structural issue right? How much can the frame rails take? The 8 has some beefy rails, the Z is pretty weedy.

    I know most 2nd Gen RX7 guys down here run 400ish front 300ish rear. Lower than us.
