Front Springs for Autox

[Naumoff]

Thanks for the info Gary.
I want to Autocross my Cobra just to see what it will do. Was trying to find a group closer to me in Southern Maryland but have not had much luck.
Looks like I will have to take a trip to Cumberland after all.

Have you ever tried spring wedges in your springs?
Every time you stop the movement of an active coil you increase your spring rate. I am going to do this as a way to have an option of playing with spring rates at the track without having to change the springs.

Tony,

Hope you make it up to Cumberland this year. And if you try the wedges, let me know how they work.

Tony,

That sounds like a great idea, I am heading to Mid Ohio the 20th of this month and I think I will try the wedges. Is it best if the wedges are placed in the middle of the spring or does it matter?

[Naumoff]

Gary,
Time permitting I hope to make it to at least one autocross this year.

Scott,

I don't know if it makes a difference where the wedges are placed but I saw a guy at Carlisle with a S7 and all his wedges started at the bottom of the spring.
I have to find wedges first. I know they use them in NASCAR.
Haven't had time to look for them. I am swamped at work. I should of asked the guy where he got his.

Try looking at spring spacers and not wedges.

Anyone tried progressive rate springs and if so which?

Thanks Rick,

My local speed shop has them. I called them earlier today.
And you are correct, they are called spring spacers.
