Yeah, i'll be learning how to drive the car at it's grip limit again next season when I try out those potenza s04's.

It really is unfortunate though, I do like the stockers. But every instructor that's been driving along with me (some national champions in both autox and track) said the tires are holding me back. Still much to learn but I've surpassed them.

Night people need all the sleep we can get. If I can, I would sleep 9-10 hours (which I usually do after auto-x weekend or drives).

Normally I take a nap for a few hours on my first day off to get back to day schedule, but I ended up sleeping like 7 hours
Went to bed at like 11pm because I felt sleepy enough... only slept for 3 hours...

ugh, I usually try to tire myself out by waking up early and then taking a "power nap" at around that time before an event day... Most of the time, I only sleep about 4 hours.

The problem is they are pricey comparing to other s-tires

I've been tempted many times... but if someone needs something I'm always the guy they call.

Luckily you don't sleep all day, just at work

But you're still a night shift vampire...

It's like another world
