which of your wheel tire packages where you on ?

Nice driving till the spin. Did you run out of talent or tire?

I like how the BRZ passes the two S2000s and impresses everybody-- then promptly spins off into the dust.

Definitely talent. Went 2 off on the left (I have a habit of trying to hang half the tire off track), stayed WOT since I had both a decent gap from the car behind me and was in a safe place, and promptly hooked across to the right when the left tires came back on track LOL.

Wasn't exactly going fast, as you can tell from the distance I went

I was in a weird funk the whole weekend and struggling in general with lap times.

I was on the wedsports with 235 that session.

I'm trying to find a new good track setup.

I'm thinking the weds sports and 17/245/40 IN RS3. maybe a 17x8.5 or 17x9 not sure what yet. What size wheels are you running?

We have 225 RS3 on 17x8 +45 RPF1, 255 RS3 on 17x8.5 RGII +50 -15mm conversion spacer(which turns out to rub, so we haven't been using it), and 235 RC1 on 17x9 TC105N.

Anything from 235 to 275 will fit well on a 17x9, but I'm not convinced that wider is faster for this car yet.

As always, RPF1 is a great value (both our car and Robispec's car are using them), but if budget isn't a concern, you can get some very nice Volks

You trying to pull a Bunta by hooking the tires in the gutter... I mean off the track?

Dave-ROR · 01-22-2013, 01:49 PM

Nice. Any in car from you during the session?

CSG Mike · 01-22-2013, 01:50 PM

I don't think so... I'll check when I get home.

DC@RoadRace · 01-22-2013, 06:41 PM
