What alignment have you found to work best for the GT350?Pro driving coach and Team 949 Racing driver Sonny Watanasirisuk will be piloting the 949 Racing GT350 and giving rides.
Ride-along format is one out-lap and one in-lap. Passengers get the full course but not a full timed lap. This is to give as many people rides as possible. First come, first serve, no sign up sheet. If there is no line, then Sonny will stay out the whole session with that passenger.
We'll also bring our big monitor so drivers can bring SD cards to share their in car video. If they like, Sonny can do some basic coaching off them.
Sonny will also be available for "data laps". That's putting him in your car for 2 hot laps to collect data and video. You can then review the data/video to see where you can pick up time. Part of his coaching service is data analysis so having a pro go say 2s faster with data to compare in your own car is huge. Sonny generally doesn't do right seat coaching due to safety concerns, just FYI. He is also available for private coaching days. Don't know his rates but I hear it's quite reasonable. I think he's on this forum now, I'll remind him to post.
Oh yeah, we'll have the new 19" 6UL's on our car. Come check them out!

-4.5°What alignment have you found to work best for the GT350?
Thanks! That's understood, I'm getting an alignment next week and needed a place to start. I'm glad I asked because I was only going to -3° in front and 2.5 in rear.-4.5°
zero toe front, oem rear toe
-3° rear camber
Hard on tires for street use but it's perfect on track.
To be 100% clear on this, there is no "best" alignment for any car. Alignments are always a compromise between various conflicting goals. At the pointy end of motorsports, alignment is asymmetric (different at every corner) and might change a few times during a race weekend depending on track conditions.
What a great video! I won't be able to make it this time around, but I wish everyone an awesome track day!Hello everyone. Thanks to [MENTION=31142]949Racing[/MENTION] for the introduction and trusting me with their car for this event. And thanks to [MENTION=21336]VUDUGT350[/MENTION] and [MENTION=20243]50 Deep[/MENTION] for organizing this unique event.
My name is Sonny. I'll be there to have fun with you all, as well as give advice to anyone who comes by our paddock space. Please, I encourage anyone to record video and data so I may help you drive well. For now, see video below of 949Racing's GT350 from last November, in case anyone wants to maximize the fun and learning experience before setting a wheel at Buttonwillow on 4/16.
Before anyone asks, this is me in flat-out competition mode, so I heavily suggest that you do not to attack the curbs as hard as I do in this video. ;)
What's your tire setup for your RS? I'm still on the MPSS. Debating if I should go cup 2's for Buttonwillow, considering the weather of coarse.If there is anyone dying to drive a 2017 Ford RS and would like to trade for a few laps, by all means let me know!! LOL! (but seriously, let me know)
Im going with my Cup 2s. Still a ways out but the weather is looking to be good Sunny currently saying 70's.What's your tire setup for your RS? I'm still on the MPSS. Debating if I should go cup 2's for Buttonwillow, considering the weather of coarse.
