btw, what do you guys think of a 235 tyre on a 9" rim? too small? I figure its alright for street use, but the load on the track/me spinning out might de-bead it? Cause ifs this is all ok I might even have a set of 17's with some nice BS Adrenelin rubber! (maybe... prob not though sad.gif)


235 on 9 inch rims will be fine, pretty much the setup I had on the front the whole of last year.

dont know if I'll be able to make Wed, can't really leave the workshop for my mechanic to manage alone.

fun day, 3 groups of around 10cars each.

You don't get much time between sessions to watch other cars.

but yea, I felt quite rushed with only 3 groups.

Same as always... A standard s5 Rx7

About 140hp at the rear wheels... slightly lowered suspension, with stiffer springs, it did have front strut tower brace (took it out after the first session because of severe understeer... I only had bad understeer after that wink.gif)

205x16 Falken's at the front, and 225x16 "Blue Steel's" at the back, so quality tires wink.gif

My times were within a second with my previous best, so I was happy with that. Though it is embarassing to say I am slower than an NA Startlet... but I have been for a ride in the NA startlet... it doesn't need brakes, just has sooo much grip!

i think my 830kg's and semi slicks will probably more than make up for the extra power you have on me

hopefully you have some good tyres for the next one! smile.gif
