El Toro Pro Thread - 3/28 to 3/29
Hey Chike and Scooby South,
Where's ma thread!! Anyway, after Saturday, Annie is leading L2 by about 0.5 sec and Richard Jung is ahead of me by 0.5 in STU. Full results are not up yet as the last group did not finish due to darkness. Richard is flying - not sure I can catch him tomorrow. We'll see

I think we are all playing a wait and see game to see how the tire wars play out. At the moment, the Dunlop is a cheap, safe and fast choice.
I gave Richard a bit of a run today, but both Annie and I were struggling with front end grip. Not taking anything away from Richard though, he drove great and has owned the ET Pro the last three years. Wiggy ran Bridgestone's last week and Kuhmo's this week. I think he just runs whatever tire whose truck happens to be at the event so he can park under their awning Wiggy also broke a motor mount on his last runs on Saturday, and did really well to get the car fixed and back running this morning. On to Wendover next month - hopefully I can get revenge on Richard |

If an OMG tire is going to show up....it better get here before 4-31-09 or it'll be next years tire. (there are variables to that statement, which veteran autocrossers will know of).

I think you're right about Wiggy and the tire semi- trucks. He forgot it was his birthday yesterday. Happy 42nd Wigg ! To Mind, I haven't seen evidence that Bridgestones are as good as Dunlops. Most of us on the West coast tried the RE-01 and didn't like the feel and how they performed on our relatively heavy cars. Last edited by Evoracer; 03-30-2009 at 06:15 PM. |

Edit: Also keep in mind (atleast at dixie) very few cars were on the RE-11s, in ST I believe my car was the only one. Most people on bstones were still running RE01rs. |
