Patrick,
Not mad, irritated, but that is your goal. So maybe I should adopt the DR385 “shtick” and interject it into all of your ERA/FE posts.

Jerry,
Not so much, I left the brake bias set for dry day with too much rear. Operator error.
But no worries on the CWs, I have an (old) set of Longacres in the shop. Ill make sure it’s good to go before I’m out on the track.
I think you guys are adding complexity and cost to what he is asking. Remember, Pman is looking for an aesthetic RH adjustment, not curing a handling malady or reducing lap times. To me it’s not a necessity, let alone critical at this stage in his game.
Few push these cars to the place where setting CW is beneficial and fewer are willing to sacrifice the change in stance (read “look”) to get optimum handling.
I will say “corner weighting” will not make a street tired Cobra hook 600 hp, I don’t care what you do!~
I’m all for setting and adjusting, tinkering and playing. It’s what I live for. I don’t care (much) what it looks like, so long as it works, but that’s me.
Everybody owns these cars for different reasons. Very few seem interested in going fast, be it on the track or the street. Most are cruiser types. They love talking about their dyno-sheets and the wax they use, but have little interest in spring rates, brake bias or ackerman, The mechanics are lost on the vast majority. But that’s ok, they love the cars for what they are to them.
