No worries - Thomas probably got credit for that run anyway!Originally Posted by jrj512
Great pics what kind of camera are you using??
My car ran good my H/E was puking up a bit of coolant but I think that it was a bit overfilled to begin with. The last run on both ends of the day had my tires begging for their lives though. They were starting to get slick on me and the rear end was trying to come around on me. That and with my wrong wheel drive and no LSD I get bad tire spin if I don't control that right foot coming out of the corners.

Those back to back hot lapped runs are brutal on the tires, especially in Texas heat. Even our 180 treadwear 265mm Yokohama AD07s needed liberal spraying between runs to get back into a usable temp range. It helps to have a 2nd person there that can spray tires between runs, so you don't hold up the line.
Video from Amy's 5th run (82.6). She ran quicker the next run (82.0) without my jabbering in her ear:

I didn't spray mine at all they probably needed it bad. They are Dunflop Sport 9000s IIRC they came stock on my car. They are quickly approaching the wear bars which probably didn't help at all. I've got a new set of tires on the way from tire rack as we speak.
That was a great run. My fastest run of the day was a 96 lol. She makes me look like a freakin' snail.

Points update. See attached.
If you can get Doug to fix the results, I think I ended up 3rd in the last event and you got 2nd.

So the white evo x mr was faster than Kenny? On street tires?
Oh hell.
Street tires FTW! The course did favor four door sedans, no doubt about it.
Sean - let me know if you wanna buy the 18x10 CCWs. We can't make them fit over the stock 14" brakes, no way. We have yet another set of 18x10 Enkei wheels on the way... we're dying to run the new Yokohama AD08s. See you at the SCCA event @ TMS Bus Lot on June 14th. I'll be in STU this time (not BSP), I promise! Well, unless I can convince Hanchey to run the EVO, so I can run our fast car...
Vorshlag E36 LS2 is only handful of work hours away from running again!
We do not have any record of my fastest time other than what I saw on the display, so I am SOL.
Save it locally and open it so you can magnify it.
I have submitted a PDF version for the http://www.s2000.org/nts2koc/autox.shtml page.

That sucks on the wheels. The Enkei warehouse is in Fort Worth. You should have talked to a local distributor about just picking them up :)... And I'm fine with the competition in BSP, we need more people there so I have an idea of if I'm getting better or not. (Paul, where are you?).
