It happened around 110mph on a straight at MSR...

 

What kind of tires?

 

Pirelli slicks.

 

A larger pic... Even at this kind of speed, the care is very easy to control... This my third blow out in the last year or so.

 

HAving trouble uploading big pics. Sorry.

 

Did you blow it through a cording spot?

 

No... I think I was a little low on tire pressure. Our guess is that the excess heat built up on the edge of the tire caused it to pretty much explode ( I was porbably running 10psi or so lower than where I should have been).

 

What pressure? The correct pressure should be around 31 hot. Did you buy these used or was this a new set? If new, how much time was on them?

 

I was at 29 in the front and 31 in the rear.... hot.
Tires were used but only heat cycled once.

Also was running 2.7neg camber and 1/16 tow out witch feels great on the car except on corner exit... Need a front LSD really bad.

 

This might be of interest.

Yap, I know Thanks.

 

At a track day, I had a Hoosier develop a huge ballooon, about 1/2 way around the surface of the tire. It came through the tread where it was apparently corded and stuck out about 3/4" and about 3" wide. Fortunately it didn't blow and I was able to get back to the pits.

 

did you damage your front lip? it looks all fall apart.
