The new guy running BoxsterSpec for NASA? I built his car and engine.. I know the NASA rules will stay the way we originally intended.. well.. because.. he is leaning on me for the history and knowledge

About the only thing I really want to see changed across the board is the placement of the spring rates.

Right now 99% of the fast people running square have the front bar on full stiff, this means we are out of spring rate on the front.

I want the rules to read: "A PAIR of 450's and a PAIR 500's must be installed on stock PSS9's" I don't want to tell people "where" to run them. Let the drivers choose.

This would allow the smart people

to run 500's in the front and 450's in the rear, or..

500 in the left front and 450 in the right front for Willow Springs.. and 500 right front and 450 left front for Thill

I'd also like to see another 25lbs come out of the cars. Things can get stale if you don't make minor tweaks...
