A week back, I attended a vintage race in colorado
the car did fine... the driver was slow, but still had fun
a couple of shots

I ran a staggered set of bias- ply vintage tires... car was not aligned for them... and they were a bit underwhelming...

You motivated me to go to the trailer
Same size and tires front and rear as you

Thanks for the input on pressure
I think I was at 19psi

Sunday afternoon I got frustrated with the tires and put on a 6-7 year old/45??? Heat cycles. Set of 225/15 A7 tires and pulled a half second off my times

Just having a hard time liking them
They recover well from small slides. But they slide way to easy at turn in

What did you do for alignment numbers? With these?

I tested them for one day last year and went back to the speedsters
Decided it was time to give them a second chanceā€¦. But still not loving them

Wish I had dropped the pressure in hindsight
