Once again, I have been over using my slicks by running them with two
clubs and I am to a point already that I feel I need to preserve them
for SCCA events. This means that I will be using my tired old Star
Specs for the Renegade events... starting with yesterdays event. I
never like the switch back to street tires and I always have a tough
time remembering that I am running them while I am on course. Overall
the day went well though. The course was good and required a lot more
self control than the last Renegade event. There were many spots that
you had to give up a lot of speed or else you get late and ruin your
lines. I had a competitor in an EVO MR there on the same tires so we
were able to compare runs (though he doesn't often AutoX in that car,
usually an MR2). Initially he was behind by 3 seconds but he was able
to put down one run in the 114's, where I was all day. My two best runs
(videos below) were 114.1xx and 114.5xx. I was rather disappointed
with these times as I should have been in the 112's but considering the
tires I'd have probably been able to do that with my slicks. I switched
the camera to the passenger side half way through the day to get an
idea of my positioning on that side as well. Once again I am very
pleased with the footage.
Fastest run in AM (and of the day)
Fastest afternoon run
