2022 STU discussion
#211
So I’m a bit confused on the battery legality discussion. I have an Odyssey pc680 in the car now. It’s not lithium. Is it legal? My catch can setup requires a small battery placement so I don’t have many options.

So it doesn't hurt to look things over from time to time. Yesterday I set out to make some more minor changes to the evo. An increase in rear spring rate and a much needed ride height raise. Picture included with the front height when I was running a 285 square tire setup.
When I got to the spring swapping in the rear - I noticed the isolator was cracked. Note to anyone using Swift Tenders with their main springs. Replace the cheap plastic spacer/isolators that sit in between the springs. Mine cracked - and I'm kinda wondering if this attributed to some odd sensations in the rear at the Mid Divisionals. Why these aren't metal to begin with, I'm uncertain. These come with their tender springs (that have spring rate). I feel like they may work OK on some chassis' that aren't as violent as the evo. Maybe I'm wrong here....
Either way - I went with the anodized aluminum versions from Eibach instead. Should have these by Monday. Next event is a TNT and points event in Lincoln in a week! Brandon - who drives a STU Type R is also coming all the way from Texas to get some more time up here. I'm a huge proponent in swaying people to get up/down here as much as they can. Hopefully I'll get a chance to ride in his car to see what it's all about.

Pretty awesome to see a couple evo drivers in picks to win the 2022 SCCA Solo Nationals: https://www.scca.com/polls/1965828

And I'm not even on the map! Nor should I be . Though my goal is to beat all the other Colorado STU drivers, including Killourhy who made the poll! Wondering how much the trophies will just come down to who was able to get the right tires at the right time.
