Great turn out, five 914-6's (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)

13 timed runs plus an hour of fun runs.
Ten drivers running back to back. Thinned out after about 30 minutes so you'd run, wait 20-40 secs and go again.
That'll wear you out.

Check out this pic of Andy. He was lifting higher, I swear it.

hoosiers are definitely worth some real time, but IMHO i think two seconds on a 40 sec course is slight hyperbole. 2 sec on a 70 sec course, maybe... v710's look pretty damn good too, and a bit cheaper. might try them next.

in any case, trek, you could improve your grip RIGHT NOW by just getting ahold of some wider wheels and mounting your yokos/hoosiers on them.

I think wider stickier slicks on wider rims would have been worth easily 1 to 2 seconds on that course. Yoko's are nice but they arent anything close to wider slicks on wider rims. We'll see how much better my times get once I get slicks on the car. My sense is I'll get close to 2 seconds on 45 - 60 second courses.
