Pro-Beam Installation
« on: July 25, 2011, 04:40:55 PM »
So glad that I installed the Pro-Beam. the suspension is now more solid, especially since I already had the center brace. The installation was easy and directions were very good. I recommend the use of lock washers just to be sure to keep everything tight. There were no problems with clearance on the 3 in Magnaflow exhaust. I am looking forward to get the Sol on the autocross to feel if the car has lossen up a bit.

Gary, glad that you had the same seat of the pants dino after ther Pro-beam was installed. It is a more solid feel and steering appears to be crisper. I have yet to drive hard into a tight turn to see if the car pushes with too much speed.......... I 'm thinking of Deven's in August.

You should be getting better traction as well.

What tires will you be using for the AutoX?

HI Dave,

Thanks again for welcoming me into the Kappa Perfomance Network.

I have run a handful of events on the stock F1 Eagles. The first time throught the course with an instructor in a drivers school it was amazing how the car would push through the corners. With some practice and air pressure adjustmentns last year I did some respectable times for a novice.
Enjoying the open ride.
