Good luck
These are exactly my numbers. At 155, it's a struggle to keep it straight in the wind. The FIA is slightly worse in that regard. And don't snap-shift-you'll unload the tires and it's like glare ice.
Get the ride height as low as you can and follow Bob's spring recommendations. He's talking about Joe Rodameister's car-a track monster.
Of course you don't always need 155 to win races...
