hi everyone,
i have a 98 s10. working on getting it to handle well for a truck on the roadcourse.
ive had my truck on the waterford hills roadcourse a couple times and got hooked.
so far its just the usual drop and stuff, but im doing my homework on racecar suspension now and this summer, ill be putting in a 3link put in for the rear.
the 3link is currently going under development in CAD, as its my daily driver and i cant afford to keep it off the road for too long.
so the basic idea of my project is to make a daily drivable truck to handle as well as possible, without breaking the budget of a poor college student.
all it needs to do is keep me happy. i have no intent on competitively racing this, the open track days are fun enough for me
and now for some pics
