yeah shane, i'm taking your car on a couple of runs next event. you can have a couple in mine

I dunno man, don't mind you drivin my car but AutoXin makes me a lil nervous as if I break something on your car I would feel obligated to fix it, I'd rather break my own car, that make any sense? Maybe I'll change my mind later, just get your ass over here to do it in the 1st place.

I was lookin at tires yesterday, really wanting Azenis rt 615's $104 a pop not too bad

 

[hooked_on4]

ahahah thats the first thing i said wen i did it for the first time wat was ur fasest time i seen the coarse 2 day lots of figure 8

Yeah there were 2 big 8's. The track was layed out very well as you back tracked across one of the 8's so that made the course a lil longer.

we were round 1 min 20 with Adrians time being 1 thousandth of a second faster then mine

Not bad, looks like they might price match too, tire insurance may not be a bad idea either..........

running over cones doesn't hurt much... i'm still at oem ride height, so the cones should go right under lol... did u check the pricing at tirerack? i could deliver since the'yre local for me... south bend clutch is also local woot

tirerack doesn't sell Falken I might pick up winter tires/stealies from em, can prolly find some stealies for less then $150 tho huh

 

[anfrey]

you're 4x100 right?

 

[hooked_on4]

you're 4x100 right?

Yap,

this is what I was looking at

Bridgestone Blizzak WS-60 (Studless Ice & Snow)
Snow Tire (4) 175/65-14 $284.00
Optional Road Hazard Program: additional $8.52 per tire

New Steel Wheel (Black Painted)
Steel Wheel (4) 14X5.5
$152.00

Going down to 14's saves $

 

[hooked_on4]

I dunno tho I may just see how my stock tires do and save that cash for my Azenis

 

[anfrey]

i think you should go 14x6 for your steelies. that's the original oem size anyway

yeah but narrower doesn't hurt for winter setups.


tirerack has that package preeconfigured specifically for Miata's supposedly

 

[anfrey]

ah i see.. i just like having that extra contact patch

 

[hooked_on4]

yeah but in snow that hurts ya ever watch Ice racing? hehe

 

[anfrey]

haha you're right. but then again, i've always lowered my tire pressure in the winter for the lake effect snow

3 cups of coffee in the morning, plus a rockstar at lunch got me with the jitters. i'm wired and still hella tired.

i'll most likely knock out as soon as i get home lol
