*For the Acura ARX-06 GTP, you can anticipate a patch on Monday that will limit the maximum allowed front heave spring deflection making it impossible to coil bind this spring on track. The new max allowed deflection is 25mm (0.5mm – 25mm). This update matches the Cadillac and BMW setup limits. The BOP reflects this update. Please plan your setups accordingly while practicing this weekend.
