My RE71R's dropped off so hard in the 80-100 run range that I don't see how anyone could stand to take 200 runs on a set.

I think I'd rage quit autocross at around the 120 run mark.

I've heard through the grapevines that the AO-52's stay around the same pace to the cords. I've got mine mounted, but it'll be another month before our first track day here in the mid-west.

First event on the Nankangs.

Day 1 was low 70s. Was having trouble getting heat in them for AutoX Surface temps felt room temp.
Day 2 was high 40s. Zero opportunity to get them to temp as the course was damp from rain.

Overall, they were grippy. Not much to say as I'm not a national level competitor who can really review tires lol

Are the CR-1's SCCA legal for 2021?

Try getting closer to the steering wheel. You'll have much better car control with bent arms than straight-arming it. Elbows should be bent about 90 degrees with hands at 9 and 3 on the wheel.

Yes this has been mentioned by almost everyone I know. My posture isn't generally this bad.

I sustained a shoulder injury a few days prior and I was just making due with the limited motion that I had. I promise you'll not see me sit like this again once I'm back to 100%.

They should be. They have (4) sizes available.

But XA doesnt care. We can run any 200tw.
