Here are the videos from last Sunday at AI in Waldorf. It was a rainy and slidey day, but we had a good time. Afternoon runs were a bit drier which was nice.
Morning: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhW4opVz87s"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhW4opVz87s[/ame] Afternoon: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6Ih1n0jbyE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6Ih1n0jbyE[/ame] Got one more event for this season which will be CDC in Frederick this Saturday.

Yeah, it looked like the Rivals were quite difficult to control in the rain. I had plenty of trouble with my ZIIs last weekend too. I think the Z1s were better in the rain, but I now know ZIIs with 1-3/32nds left are no good in the rain. Both Fred and my tires are at the wear bars, and we couldn't do anything in the wet on worn ZIIs.
It sucks the season is over! I'm going to AI again this weekend, but I wish I could go to Cumberland. Have fun at Frederick. |

Think I may go for ZII's again next year, unless the newer version of the Hankook RS' comes out.
I need to decide if I want to get some 17x8 RPF1's(or equivalent) and go to a 245 tire or just stay on the stockers with the 225's. Only other suspension mods I'll be able to afford next year will be maybe shocks since I'll have to buy tires, etc, and the wife has the budget wrangled for our honeymoon which got postponed till next year.

That is the million dollar question. Both are good. Rivals are non-directional so nice for rotating around for wear and longevity, but worse in the rain. ZII's are generally considered the best all-arounder with basically no downside, but may not be the fastest compared to the rivals.

Here is the video from my last event for 2013 today at CDC in Frederick. Loved the course and the car felt great in nice cool conditions:
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTRb5o01TEs"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTRb5o01TEs[/ame] One my last run, I hit a cone, and knowing my time for the run was lost, punched it hard into the speed corner. Here is the 2013 Season Finale: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCH1blZ6hEo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCH1blZ6hEo[/ame]

Welcome back to 2014 everyone. CDC had a limited attemdance impromptu test & tune day in Frederick last Saturday. This was my first day on the coil-overs. I need some suspension tuning for sure after trying it out. Felt good though and had some good runs:
