Some more practice this weekend. Still learning. Need to work on set up... earlier brake, gas, and steering.

Does anyone have any insights as to when we can expect an announcement for the spec tire brand & model?

edj · 10-31-2017, 09:18 AM

SCCA will announce the spec tire just as soon as the check clears.

probably before Christmas but nobody knows for sure.

I bet it's BFG.

iLuveKetchup · 11-02-2017, 11:24 AM

I'm willing to bet it's not Rivals or REs.

I'd say Nexen or Falken.

I was guessing Hankook

Inside sources tell me it'll be Nakangs... and by inside sources, I mean the voices in my head that think all the speculation is nonsense.

We've seen how quickly the pizza rolls can get burnt if you do several autocrosses and a track day with a co-driver at each event. haha

I admit I was a little distracted and didn't notice. The chill of the wind while working grid, and then other stuff...

Fair enough.

Yeah, the 2nd day Eric ended up co-driving with me because their sidewalls were chunking pretty bad, and they still needed to drive home. So Megan finished the day in their car and Eric took the rest of his runs in my car.
