ComputerScales/Sway Bar Links/Alignment

Finally took my 2019 mini Cooper JCW to AutoSpec at Harris Hill Raceway for some suspension "tweeking". Worked out Great. John Long knows his business and does the work himself. Put it on ComputerScales and got the LF to RR to 50% which means the RF to LR is also at 50%. Total weight right now is 3003 with me in the Mini and Half a Tank of Fuel...Also did a VERY ACCURATE ALINGMENT and then Neutralized the Front and Rear Sway Bars thru Link Adjustments http://www.automotive-specialist.com/.../harris-hill.../


This is a good start for this year with some other mods coming...

November 1st 2020 I started a losing weight program and Blood Sugar Control (My Own Program thru detailed research). Now I have lost 37 pounds and dropped my A1c down from 7.7 to 5.6...

Stuck my Mini in XSA even tho it is nowhere near a XSA Modified Vehicle...Could have put it in STU but I had added a Forge Intercooler and Eventuri Carbon Fiber Air Intake which moves it out of STU. The car that beat me was an old Nissan 240 with a LS3 Engine and Stripped down (I did beat the second driver in that vehicle but the first driver is very experienced! A modified Subaru STI was the other decent competitor who came in 3rd...bigger turbo, AWD, Stripped, ECT. My last run should have made it into the 47's but I pushed a bit thru a sweeper. The well used YOKO A052s still did OK

1T xsa 67 Mat B Fraser Le Mans Red 48.563+1... 47.310... 47.618... 46.716 ...46.658 ... 46.658 [-]1.616

2T xsa 57 Wally D Mini Cooper S JCW Orange 50.653... 49.184... 48.527... 48.356... 48.274... 48.274 (+1.616)

3 xsa 58 Terrence U Subaru STi Silver 52.943... 53.507+1... 59.791... 50.495... 49.167... 49.167 +0.893

4 xsa 6 Jessica L Fraser Sports Racer with R1 Ronald McDonald 53.254+1... 50.792...50.401... 49.903+1... 49.272 ...49.272 +0.105
