At first blush, upright. That's what is in my Spitfire. However, if you are a short guy who needs to sit closer to the pedals, or a tall guy who needs to get lower under the rollbar, a layback might

The preferred method of applying Loctite to rod bolts -- don't. Get some ARP bolt lubricant and smear 'em with the stuff, including under the bolt head. (No, you really don't need it on the unthreade

It is my understanding the Isaac is not legal for SCCA because it requires physically detaching it to exit the car. Too bad because I've looked at it and rather liked it -- especially the feature tha

That's two tonneaus. The silver one is for a RHD car, the black one is for a LHD car. It looks generic enough you could probably make it fit most cars that don't have headrests on the seats. Hope it'

Numerous factors figure in, including corner weight. Also a factor is what you set them at cold and what they end up at hot. In my Spitfire, I set them 21F/24R for autocross, 18F/21R for racing. They
