Brandan, that Z looks very familiar haha thanks for the pics!

PharmDZ, the car felt good just the tires have not much left in them anymore. There were 115 entries with 35 pro drivers. Ended up 34th overall raw time 2nd in my class. Next event is on the 12th which is Saturday, you should come up if you can.

I'm always looking for my next autocross tire and noticed that the new Bridgestone is what everyone is using at nationals. With the new 285 released I wanted to ask if anyone has used these with our low camber cars and had any overheat or roll over issues? I run on concrete often and dont want anything to wear out tremendously fast.
Really hoping the Kumho v720 will get released, i loved the XS but havent seen any 19's

THANK YOU! haha.. i never saw this post. Yes. I drove well that day. Loved the course and was able to put down some good laps. I was suppose to run 3rd with you guys. But I was told to run 2nd heat. You did well too. I'm actually friends with the EVO guys (sang yi). Very nice guy. Believe me or not, my tires had 145+ runs as of that day. I didn't get grip first run. I actually had to let some air out and kind of get grip with expanse of rolling tires (slightly). Whatever it takes, right? haha ..

Great driving man! So what's done to the Z that puts it in SSM? just curious. 34 raw time with 35+ pro drivers week before national is a da*n good driving on any scale! great job.

Nice pics! so next time someone tells you AK do not exist and last I heard he is a robot, show them these pics hahah

What I like about this pic is you can see how front tire traction diminishes with a turn of a steering wheel..

I remember that course. NNJR really puts on some fun events. Your car also sounds great.

Anyone use Forgestar 14's in 18" for autocross? I am trying to find a good 18" wheel for autox that comes in gunmetal and is not over $1500.

cjwsrt6 · 01-04-2016, 08:21 PM

There is a guy up in Huntsville that uses them with bridgestones, I don't know his username off the top of my head though

I was thinking about getting them with the RE71r's too. seemed like it would be a decent combo.
