Re: Star Specs?

My buddy has been running the pilots on his Mazda 3 h stock/stf car taking top pax in his local nc scca region. Eric should clean house in stf at dixie as well if he drives to his potential. Vince doesn't need an all out dry weather tire unless he planned on running multiple sets of wheels. The pilo...

Re: Star Specs?

It's the new bfgoodrich max summer tire. Another option I didn't think about is the michelin pilot super sport. They make a 265/40/18 which is closer to stock diameter. The michelin would make a lot better 3 season tire and is pretty awesome in the wet while still being good in the dry and are price...

Re: Star Specs?

Don't worry about overall diameter unless your running out of gear or lacking power both of which I don't think you have to worry about. I think the 275/35/18 rival would be my choice for the mustang. They will fit fine on an 8 inch wheel with little bulge. In rain sessions you'll be screwed regardl...

Re: Utter confusion at the tire place today

my hoffman isn't the best but it works fine with my little a6s. it can get a little brutal with super low profile r-comps. i've had better luck with most r-comps than some street tires i've mounted for friends. if anyone is in frederick and needs a hand swing on by, i work at precision tune autocare...

Re: R-comps in small bore

from personally running on old v710s 205/50/15 for 2 seasons before swapping over to new a6s for this year I was a good 1-1.5 seconds faster at fedex. some of that time was size difference but I think most of it was just swapping to new rubber. the v170s weren't worn out when I got rid of them but t...

problem solved don't worry nobody will get bumped down in the points. Its my fault I didn't get put in the results and since i'm not competing regularly i'm not worried about points anyway. I know where I ended up which is all that matters to me. sorry for any confusion I may have caused. :)

Re: 7/18 event at SP & pictures

so who's cruel idea was it to leave the hyundai out of the results completely?

i'm pretty sure my 38.0 would put me 3rd overall raw and pretty high up on index as well as winning the small bore class.

any input on this guys?
