Chris and Mark, congrats. I ran yesterday and beat all the street cars except a STS Nissan Sentra SE-R with suspension mods and Kuhmo street tires. He beat me by half a second and was a good driver. His Dad drove the same car and was 4 seconds slower. I had new KDW on front,w/ my older Comp TA VR4 on rear. Hoped for oversteer, got my wish. Left tire pressures at 47 front/45 rear. My times were:
1st run: 52.138 good balance,I always go fast on first run, often my best run,low gas
2nd run: 52.093 ditto,low gas
3rd run: 52.820 filled tank, got a lousy start and then totally sideways midway through,oversteer with full tank
4th run: 51.997 again oversteer under drop throttle, but controllable. Not sure yet whether empty tank or full tank is best for this tire combo. Need to play with air next time.
