2nd: 2.617
3rd: 1.989
4th: 1.578
5th: 1.307
6th: 1.130
Final gear: 4.368

Any suggestions?
Its just not getting enough speed & acceleration around the cornors.

Awesome, set-up... Mostly everything is beneficial, but one question. How is the suspension supposed to function at a 100%, when it's well... Slammed. But then again you could be a form>function kind of person.

Why so hard in the rear? Also, the camber seems a bit extreme to me. I haven't tried to tune an 86 though, so I wouldn't know. Im just curious.

Drifting is all about form>function. :P

I'm 100% Function over Form. Thing is, a slammed car just means less body roll, which is the way I prefer it. That way steering and throttle are the major factors in stability of the car :)

The stiffness in the rear comes from my real life preferences, on a bumpy surface it is safest with a locked or 2 way diff, and most predictable :) (Opinion).

Camber is simple: My front camber is always this high, since I'm on a wheel, and get some huge angles (even with an 86), I want the car WHEN it gets front end grip, not to over react. Which is why I reduce the grippy-ness of the front :) Rear end is normally below 1, for me. But since this car has pretty low horsepower, I need to break traction easier. (When I can't, because of the weight shifting, with low weight and hard springs. :P)

It's all a correlation really. :)
 
The setup looks good, may try it later.

But in the meantime:

It seems you don't read properly before telling people they have good spelling. :lol:

This makes no sense? I read correctly, the spelling was off. Hence I made a bit of a joke about it, without pun intended. I really don't get what you mean though.

@Adrenaline: The meme actually does have good grammar. Unless you want it to contain punctuation marks?

Well if you did read properly you would've noticed the mistake.
