Scrub those tires!

Hope you enjoyed the Event!

My son and I were driving over the bridge over Turn 17 in my Whiteout FR-S when we passed a Hot Lava that was headed out. Was that you? First Lava FRS I have seen in person.

We notice that on the way home after the event, ribbons of built up rubber start to come off and flap around the wheelwells. It happens every time in almost the exact same place, right before Okeechobie.

Great day, great event and every time I do a session, I love the car more :)

Hey Scott, I was the white brz with the black rays rims. Nice meeting you, and @NIN too.
Going back in June as well. It was a blast this past Saturday. Car is just getting better and better.

I'll be there on Sunday for the June Chin event. It was good meeting you Maj75 on Sunday. I was in the #1 FRS. 3 White FR-S's was a good showing for that day.

I'm still not sure how my schedule will be for June.

My new FRS (blue) is supposed to get delivered at the end of May. Not sure it will be ready.

I used to have the problem when I was a novice. The wheels would start vibrating from being unbalanced. I don't have that problem anymore.

I concur, this is rarely a problem now.. but then again, I am also not on street tires anymore... R compound seems to cure this pretty quickly, especially on the way home

Good to see a strong FR-S showing for June. I'm already signed up for Saturday the 8th I believe. As Scott mentioned last weekend, we should get some BRZ/FRS Cup Series going at Sebring since it looks like there will be at least 4-5 of us each event.

Can't wait to get my baby back from the shop...

I'm clearing the June event with headquarters (wife). I pretty sure it's a go though since I won't be able to do the August event.
