Hah awesome shot... just signed up for the DC Championship Tour. I know I've asked before, but what wheel/tire setup are you running? I really have to invest in some slicks soon to start being competitive in ASP. Locally I can get away with my square 295 R888 setup for now.

Volk TE37sl's 18x10 +30 front, 18x11 +18 rear, 315/30-18 Hoosier A7's all around.

fwiw if you don't already have a clutch type diff in your car, get one of those first.

There is another event in June at Hutchinson Island. Are you going to be there? I am thinking about going.

Yup, done and done - OS Giken diff installed. Upped the spring rates on the new coils I got. Any fender modification to run those 315's in the front? It's looking like that'll be the setup I go with to get a bit more competitive with the right tire. Did the Evo Performance school two days ago and the R888 were not liking it too much. It was either not quite hot enough and then WAY too hot and pushing like crazy. Really should have brought a tire sprayer.

Haven't touched the fenders at this point.

Yep, I'll be there, but due to life getting in the way of installs my car is still 100% stock. Still a blast.

Had my second competition this weekend at the Lincoln NE ProSolo competition. I was disappointed to see no other Z's at this event either. Am I just in a sea of Corvettes only?

ProSolo was a different animal than the event I competed in back in April. I didn't really understand the difference between Solo and ProSolo when I arrived. Either way I had a blast and learned a lot again.

I'm hoping to attend another local event before the end of the summer and possibly get to do a ride along with one of the faster drivers to see what I can learn by watching. I learned that the lines I picked initially for the ProSolo course were just atrocious and I picked up a total of 6 seconds on the left mirror of the course over the weekend and a total of 5 seconds on the right mirror of the course. This put my fastest runs just about at the slowest runs of the other competitors at this national event. My goal is to catch them and just generally improve my driving with seat time.

I'll be around in my Z... Grenada match tour, Wilmington champ tour, Blytheville prosolo, and possibly Nationals.

Also in other news, I won my first national trophy this month at the Bristol Match Tour (3rd of 13). Also Eric S (Nismosis) placed 2nd. We're both in B Street 370Zs. First place was an excellent driver in a c5 corvette and the course favored corvettes(torque and better differential).

Here's my run:

Congratulations!

Pretty sure I met you....I was in the blue STU 350Z.

Video from this last weekend's ProSolo in Toledo. Runs were good enough for first place in ASP. Admittedly the competition wasn't too strong in ASP but I'll still take it.

Nice! :tup:

Just looked at the entry list for the DC Tour. You've got some strong competition with Rogerson/Janveaux and the Hockenbury's there. Good luck.

Thanks! I'm gonna get my a$$ handed to me being on R888's, but it'll be a good experience. Next year I plan on coming with a stronger wheel/tire setup and more seat time. Just did Evo School phase 1 and I'll get phase 2 in next year. Felt like it helped my driving plenty. We'll see what I can apply this weekend.

Hi guys I need some help. I just got a set of Re71r 18/275/35 tires on 18x 9.5 and 18x10 rims. I have -2.7 camber up front with -2 in rear. One thing that I am seeing is that I am not getting the tires to roll all the way over to the edge in the front or rear. I have my fonts at about 33psi and rears at 27. Question is can I keep going lower in pressure to get roll over? Or will my contact patch suffer from too low psi? I dont have a pyrometer to help me at the moment.

Allright guys...I have to get a set of pads that will good for autocross, but quiet on the street. Wife doesn't like the Carbotechs that I use for the track AT ALL! hah! Is there anything out there or do I stick with the stock pads? I am trying to avoid changing pads for track/autocross/street. I understand that track pads are a different animal, so Im hoping that there is a street/autocross pad that will work for both. TIA
