Spec Miata: Fine Tuning at the Track

If you have followed the steps in our last post about getting a baseline setup for your Spec Miata, then you’re ready for those small adjustments at the track.When I go out in the first session, my first goal is always to find a balanced platform. You want to ensure the car is working equally in all parts of the corner. To achieve this balance, I start with ride height and corner weight adjustments in mind.Ask yourself two questions: Is the car turning equally left and right? Is it predictable into and out of the corners? It should be pretty close if you've done your baseline setup properly. Keep in mind, not all tracks are the same, nor are the track conditions. For this reason, we spend the first few on track sessions fine tuning our set-up to both the track and the track conditions.
