ooh ok, i saw the tires on the ground, i was wondering which car they belonged to.

 

Yeah! Awesome results. Hope your enjoying your Xede and tune.

 

Actually, I had to part with the XEDE.. (Can't use a piggy-back at the USTCC series). It's been a good year, though, with the XEDE...it's 91 octane custom-tune was great.

I ran my last two sessions @ thunderhill with Pete's (@WORKS) race-tune (flashed ECU)...and that was bad-*** too (what a difference a 100 octane "tune" makes!).
I believe that, and those wicked TOYOs got me in the 2:03s (yeah, the tune and tires were "too fast" for me). Tires would not even squeal..more time with them would've given me better lap times.

 

Awww thats too bad. Good luck with the car.

 

Thanks

 

hey patrick(right?),
i didn't know you had a timer in the car?.

i hope you're not quoting times based on how much faster
the car "felt"with those tires on(oliver told me it felt 4-5 secs. faster)

if those are real times then the 888's are more impressive than i thought.
i'm sure the fact that the normal ra-1's weren't getting up to temp and the 888's
were probably quite a bit softer and thus getting some heat in them, but damn that's
a couple of secs. faster than the hoosers are over the ra-1's.

i wish toyo would release those tires already!

you have any more trackdays planned?

 

Hey Sean (right?)
Those 888s were actually the hardest of the 3 compounds TOYO offers (!!)
Amazing what the softer ones would do.
Turn 8 was just a slight lift (maybe a little, little "tap" on the brakes) - and GAS!

April 08-09, Sears Point (w/ NASA). Be there man...let's have some fun again.
This time, I will be testing Hankook's Z211s (have to dial out the handling with those tires - no choice). Good meeting you @Thunderhill man.

P
*btw, Pete's race tune is CRAZY

 

where do you get all these tires from anyways?
