Lots of people running these tires yesterday at the AX mostly the 240SX crowd in STS class. Tread wear is 200. I could run to and from the event without changing wheels.
So what is the consensus arond here. going to need new tires soon. the ones I got are nearly shot. front Yoko 008R really old and hard Rear Dunlop D60 tread wear rating of 220. makes the ass end slip willy nilly. Maybe I should reverse this. Probably understeer like a bitch then. Ofcourse what I should do is "pay the nice man for 4 of the Kumhos victro racers. |

Doing pretty well is a relative thing, I guess.
I don't consider myself doing pretty well when I am 3 sec off the pace for TTOD at SCCA.....that won't getcha into the top 20. I get the AX blues when I pull that trick. One second off the pace will get me into the top 10, which "ain't bad". .5 sec will get ya in the top 5.....I slip into "hog heaven" (haven't been there much, tho). Having said that, comparing one AX competition with another is pretty tough. Your GGR hotddogs would be E-mod cars at the SCCA. E-mod cars here are not 2 sec clear of the field, but maybe ours sux. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) This is meant to dispariage anyone, just a point of interest. We'll sort this out at the 914 AX next year...on your home turf.
