Curious what brand and model of tires you were working with?

Hi Guys,

 

at the last weekend I had time to test the TR8 and messed with tire pressures, 
camber, spring rates and stuff.

It went that far, that the rear springs are softer now than they was.

That helped a little to cure the oversteer.

 

Next step will be to try out different tire compounds.

At the track side was a tire truck and the people were helpful to examine the 
tire surface.

 

It seems the front comes on temperature while the rear end stays cold.

So they suggested to test medium compound at front, and soft compound at rear.

 

And they said, I?m a too gentle driver and I?m not using the tire enough, which 
is bad for their business as with this kind of driving, the tires will last 
ages.

 

In one week the car goes to Le Mans ? the small track ? and there I can test 
the car further while racing.

I?m curious how the soft rear tires will perform.

 

Cheers

Chris
