thanks guys. As for tire pressure, I upped the pressure to 40 front, and 35 rear. But I think that gave me to much understeer. So next time I'm going to drop to maybe 37 or so. What do you guys recommend? And as for tires, seeing as this is my first season, I think I'm just gonna go as much as I can before getting a new set (unless I find an awesome deal 
) Right now I'm pretty sure my limiting factors is still the driver, not the car.
Aj, can u PM the contact info for ur tint guy. Thanks.

Hum... That seems WAY high IMO. Depends on the tires and the size though etc... When I was running my F1's I was doing 32-33 F-R. That seemed to work great! But that was with -1.8 camber in the rear (cant remember the exact front camber / toe since due to corner weighting it to my weight + gas tank 1/4 it was different for each wheel 
)
With my V710s I ran COMPLETELY different numbers for my stickies... Check on this forum and see what others with those same tires run for their autocross pressure!! It will help a ton!

Also most people will agree that its
70% tires / 25% driver / 5% car
I've heard that OVER AND OVER at all autocrosses lol
I remember jumping to SM2 and ppl said I was cheating by using that Z + V710s jokingly... but it was funny! lol

CGI Motorsports, as many of you know, has their HPDE several times during the summer. A buddy of mine have plans for May 26, and I was curious if other people here would be headed out there on this same day (Memorial Day).

Milan - Test n Tune Wednesdays
Very short notice, but, I was thinking of driving down to Milan tonight for a few 1/4mile runs. They open at 4 til 9. If my lady is up for it, I think I'm going to go. $25, $12 to watch.
I figure since it is cold out it might be less crowded..?

Bah.. Not doing anything car related tonight. I didn't plan the Milan thing out at all, so it's not worth to go for like 2 hours. My car is filthy.. and my wheels are still not done - so no meets. oh well. Hope the rest of you have some fun tonight.

Jeff - The mid range on your car is awsome. Its making me think about the mrev and the spacer. How did you like the sound of the car? See what I mean about the higher RPMs especially in 3rd. Good runs tonight.
