Icey Mike, you still got the same tires that he ran? What kind?

Courtlak, I agree with the notion that their is no substitute for seat time. Still an amazing performance on 60 series average rubber on a worn out car. The SE does have essentially the same torque as the SVT and is much lighter so I can see why an SE would do so well. How does the GTI compare to the Contour timewise. Are there cars you beat in the Contour that you lose to in the GTI or vice versa? Next year the GTI goes to G Stock I believe.
