I've seen several different people post on this event, at least two of them were there. Apparently a T/A bit the grass and rolled over... AND a 'Vette smacked a wall. Everyone keeps saying how insane

I like the idea. I think it's perfectly rational. I'm not sure 5% is an accurate figure. As much as anyone who's spent the bucks on those fancy autocross tires will hate to admit it, they probably on

Initial cost may be comparable, but if I drove the Kumho R-tires on the street (which I'm actually considering for summer use only), I'd get less than half as many miles out of them, especially if I

This is what a lot of newbies see as well. But, once you get the car set up correctly, and learn how to drive it smoothly within its limits, and get tires that are made to DRIVE (not "ride") on... th

I could have you or anyone else in the country drive my car with the best street tires available (shaved if you wish), and they might do better than I did, but they still would not win against a simi

<snip to end> My inexperienced opinion: Go with zero or slight toe-out in the rear. Given what you've said, I'd leave it as it is. It works and you know how to deal with it. -- Loren Williams | Homep

Isn't that how you're supposed to drive an autocross course anyway? Seriously. I've never been to CA, but I expect any busy freeway is like any other... the key to getting anywhere in a hurry is to k

Hey T.N, I have to ask the obvious question (being fully aware that the obvious answer is "we have enough classes already"): Why not create Super Street Prepared? We have 8 stock classes, we only hav

It's a lot of camber for street use, regardless of what kind of car it is. The camber itself (depending on the tire and your driving style) isn't what's wearing your tires. It's the toe setting that
