Seriously...... ......it appears you are chunking more evenly across the tread. I checked my tire pressure after each session, and I bleed to 40-42 psi hot. It seems I'm running too much pressure. What pressures are you running? And, how do you check?

I got talking with the president, Paul, and he said that just by flipping the fronts I should definitely be able to get several more track days out of these tires. There I was, ready to buy $800+ of S-03s from him, and he said I should wait. I was impressed.
I told you that at the Glen my friend. That's why I swapped the front left and right tires right before the event. I'm ready to run these tires down until they're slicks.

You did? Where was I at the time?

Errr... I don't remember. Remember I mentioned that I had some built in camber into the tires since I swapped the front tires since at Summit Point I destroyed the outside of my front left tire?

Still thinking of having Mitch Piper do that 4 point roll bar for you? I think I might try for some time in early October...
