Now that AX season is over in the Bay Area, I took off my worn Kumhos and put on the street tires for the winter.
When I looked closer at my tires, SHEEEESH. It's amazing that I actually did my fastest lap on the last run. 1 of 4, this is the passenger front tire Attached image(s) |

QUOTE(mikez @ Nov 15 2004, 02:22 PM) Running a little excessive camber are we? If not intentional....ya need an alignment.... Have you checked inside, middle and outer temps after a hot run? Mike, don't know if you were referring to Demick or myself, but it seems that we both do not have enough negative camber. I know I need a lot more, I only have about 1.5 in the rear, but that is because I suspect I have a bent arm. I can get almost 3 on one side, but only 1.5 on the other, so the lowest common demoninator wins <_< Too cheap to buy a pyrometer, or whatever the thing is called... but I do know people that totally swear by it. |
