Do you guys typically run street tires in SM or Hoosiers?

 

Whatevs C!! I would like to get used to it, but can't say it will be easy lol.

We all run street tires in SM. We all decided we didn't want (can't afford) to spend $3k a season on tires alone. So it keeps the competition even amongst us.

 

Understood! I was contemplating having a set of slicks and street tires like I did last year and it was expensive. I just bought 1 nice set of street tires and called it good

I'm pretty stoked to get out to the next autocross up there in Birmingham. I'm just starting to prep the car for that weekend. Should be a ton of fun meeting some more Evo people from down here.

Look forward to meeting you man! Come join the SM fun

 

Ill be there. hit my phone up when your headed down and ill meet yall there. im easy to spot, im the only (almost) turbo'd lancer in bham(should be finished in 2 weeks)

 

Welcome!! hope to see you out there at the next event on the 30th.

 

AWESOME time at autox this weekend. Slow times but I sure as hell had a lot of fun! Nice meeting you C and Heath!

The code my engine threw after run 5 was P0171 "system too lean" (I had more than half tank of gas at time) I deleted it and it hasn't come back yet and I've driven it pretty hard. Next thing on my list is hooking up my wideband gauge

 

Good to meet you to man, glad you came!

The p0171 is typically bad MAF scaling from a poor tune 99.9% of the time. Laziness. Be careful with that, you could run a little extra lean just once and boom. Matt may be able to look at it for you and help you out. He has tuned all of our cars with no issues *knock on wood*

 

Nice to meet you too! and glad you enjoyed it. Sorry about the code I normally carry the code reader with me but it was in the WRX at home. Hope you come out on the 30th and become a regular!. C

 

So what do ya'll consider a street tire?

 

Anything that's not R-comp. We normally run Star Specs or RS3's.

 

No problem about the scanner C. I actually figured out my scanner gauge on my way to Gulf Shores (not wise... i know).

I've got my wideband O2 sensor screwed in and routed as far as the center console (which I'm hoping was the hardest part). It's a wideband "controller" and it's used so it's got a bunch of extra **** on it. I don't even know what a wideband controller even does (just got the gauge as a package deal with the A-pillar pod)

 

Hankook RS3 ( this is what I currently use)
Dunlop Starspec
Kumho XS

lots of stcky rubbers. C

 

Autocross is this Saturday!~!!! woot woot!

 

Be there in the morning! Dry morning with 50% chance of rain for after lunch. I'll just win before lunch
