I have the Dinan front sway bar set on the stiffest setting. Turn in on 265'S is great but maybe it would be better on 275's. I'm pretty sure the M2 that finished second was running 275 square. The 265/35 19 rubs the fender liner, but not too bad. No issues with 305 on rear other than they are a bitch to mount. I'm pretty sure everyone was running RE71s.
I'm told I fared ok for my first event. I made some stupid mistakes like missing a shift, so the pressure can be intense the first time. The courses were very different to what I'm used to. Lots of U turn sweepers that we don't see at Devens in MA since we do a loop around an airfield. Not sure if I'll keep the M2 for next year or move to another class. It's a very competitive car though, even against new Caymans.

Thanks for the detailed info, Nigel. Your experience with rubbing using the 265/35-19s is distressing, since I have no choice but to run 19s on my M2C.
