That's not body roll. This is body roll.

So you're saying the 1M needs shocks? Those look like 18" wheels, yes?

I've concluded that it needs a slightly stiffer set-up.

Not only due to body roll, but also because of dive under heavy braking.

That body roll doesn't look too bad at all. I'm curious though, does that 1M have AST dampers? Curious based off the stickers on the car.

Those are the OEM 19s.

I'm curious about these things you refer to as "brakes." I might use them occassionally.

No it is all stock. Parts are coming for phase 1 build. I don't think the body roll is bad for stock setup at 45 to 50mph.

The car is on Hoosiers on the stock wheels. Yes, they rub a little in the front.

Ast stickers are from past e36 m3 stu and current 328is stx car.

We went to a small local autox on the way to drop the car off to fix about 2k in damage from shipping. We took 5 runs and had issues with the brakes. BMW is replacing the rear rotors and pads. Ordered some hawk plus pads to beat on.

They rub the fender liner but tc Kline told me he ran the same setup on the track with rubbing but nothing worse.

My race wheels will be in in a few weeks. Going with an orange theme of wheels and numbers on this car.

Pretty excited about the A Stock SCCA build. Should bump heads with the car that won A Stock nationals in March. If the car is within a second, I will put the other 3k the build if not I will look at building it for STU or NASA TTA.

265 all the way around? Was the rubbing at all corners or just the front? I wonder how much rubbing I'll get from 295 in the rear.

You're going A Stock? I thought you were doing a minus sizing and running BMCCA only. I'm gonna have to kick your butt!!!

FWIW, A Stock is finally coming of age (again). C5 non-Z06 Vette, Boxter/Cayman and S versions, and Mustang Boss 302 (dark horse) will be the players in addition to our overweight 1M creatures.
