Jesus Christ man look at the edge-burn on those! Have you been running with 0 camber?

Those are not burned at all... The car does not even begin to push those monsters, the rest of the tire is just covered with old rubber from the cool down lap - there is a lot of build up on the inside edge of the tire. It is very important to scrub tires like these on your warm up lap.

And with bias ply cantilever slicks the proper camber range is around half (-.5) a degree on most cars, they are not like a radial.

This is what a dead one looks like... A little too soft of a compound choice, and a little too much camber (this was -.8).

^Now that looks ridiculous lol.

The stacked tires looked burned to me because there was a guy at Auto-X with a Caymen a while back that was running 0 camber and his looked just like those. From far away all you saw was a lot of unidentifiable melted crap on the contact patch, but up-close you could tell they were burned. I guess if I saw your tires up close I would've seen what's on there.

So you showing-up to the meet?

^ Just wondering, did they make the track longer again? Add that little bowl near the start back in? More tires maybe? I hate those things....

That is why I wont run one of their events. When we used the track we just put cones up, same result without the consequences.

Nope, same setup. But unlike last time we had mostly seasoned racers on the track.

I don't have one, pretty sure. I know Mike would confirm it, I didn't even know they HAD time slips.
