Whatchu talkin bout?

I will admit, I don't know that I'll run as many events as I did this year. Depends on how many/much HPDE I can do and what the schedule looks like. Either way, I know I'll run the street tire class when I do autox.

Next year SM will have Evo's in the top three spots at every event. If we see the return of Lockett, Compton and the wrx guys, SM will be a competitive class again. I expect Tim to be back out too... if he can find the rest of 1st gear

Yeah, we'll see.

You dont need to worry about Tim. I gots me a 6 speed sitting at Sandy garage that can go in the car if needed. I'm excited for next season if those guys actually return, especially Lockett if he can get his car together. I've compared mine and Chau's times to Alex's times, and we're not off his pace by much on street tires vs. Hoosiers. I think we'd give him a run next season. WRX guy, Dan(?) is vry consistent. Having his hot wife there is distracting, lol. I will protest if she stands in my view before any of my runs!

...and then there's this a-hole Aaron Shoe! Going down bro!

Whichever it is, its still faster than my street tires. The car overall I dont think is faster, and neither are the two drivers. Chau and I learned a lot about heat related issues this season. Running the RS-3 at Dover was a lesson learned! It was a hot day, the heat moved very quickly, not allowing us cool down the tires as we would have like. Running that event made me think of Cy & Corey's heat issue at the at nationals over the summer. No amount of water we sprayed o nthe tires were enough.

Subtle, Imma dominate next season post!

Yeah, that a-hole. I hate that guy

Stang is on kooks. They might have hoosiers next year. Alex is a good driver. That car needs more power to keep up with the handling mods, but the intent was to build it for track use. I think they want to keep it reliable (power wise) and will be adding a cage for next year (more weight).

You guys need to get to a test and tune early next year to tweak your setup. I plan to go to the first one offered, because I should have some tuning to do. I have to find a set of used A6's to start off on... corded one of mine on Sunday. They made it the entire season, but were pretty beat/low on grip by the end.
