October 25, 2005: More suspension thinking.
I'd like to do a pushrod front end, but that won't happen anytime soon. I'll probably start by simply putting in 50% stiffer springs front and rear. This will take a bit of money but I think it will really help the car. It will let me run a lower ride height on the street - possibly the big difference between myself and the GRM car - with less concern for bottoming. I'm also thinking about using the winter to do some more changes such as a new fuel tank and possibly my pushrod front with new lower front control arms. Who knows, right now I'm happy to just play with the Mini.
