If there was a competition for posting videos, Jeff would still beat me in that too, but I think I'm catching up to Leonard.

Yes, but I don't think I'm going to have a choice in any case. That stock rubber is looking pretty terrible.

My vote is for a big fat set of Star Specs. Whatever your rim will allow. You won't be sorry.Davin Swanson wrote:Yes, but I don't think I'm going to have a choice in any case. That stock rubber is looking pretty terrible.
By the way, after you left I cranked off a 56.9 with my little underpowered NA.........on Star Specs.

Geez, Ed, I think you'd be a contender in SK2! ;)Ed Holley wrote:By the way, after you left I cranked off a 56.9 with my little underpowered NA.........on Star Specs.
Re: Video Thread: Autocross Weekend Dec 10-11, 2011
Dead issue! Besides, I love hearing the announcer say "With that time, that puts Ed Holley in 1st Place". This in spite of my being the only entry on THIS Sunday. Oh well, sometimes it's lonely at the top.Davin Swanson wrote:Geez, Ed, I think you'd be a contender in SK2! ;)Ed Holley wrote:By the way, after you left I cranked off a 56.9 with my little underpowered NA.........on Star Specs.

Never underestimate how much tire you can put on a stock wheel!Whatever your rim will allow.
Here Tim A. puts a 285 on a stock Miata rim:

... but how wide, 6.5" if I recall. Hoosier recommends a 9" to 11" wide wheel!
