Any reason you want to run staggered? Most experienced track guys prefer non-staggered.

Most of the faster track cars here run a staggered set up

There's a lot of talk in R&C on this topic, but basically if you're on stock front bar and/or no aero, non-staggered is the way to go. The S2000 needs a bigger front bar, a wing, and possibly a splitter to utilize non-staggered tires effectively.

I think he meant also need wing and front sway to get most from nonstaggered?

Looks like to run a 265 in the rear you'd need a roll if you're dropped 1"+ :/ Would you concur?
