I have had mixed feelings with my American Racer tires and was thinking about trying the Hoosiers in the 23x9.5x15 in the R35a compound. Is anyone else still running these? They would probably fit great on my Fuchs 7&8s. If not I have a set of 7" cookie cutters collecting dust. Ultimatly I would love to run Avons, but they are just so darn expensive. Thoughts?

Sure, 50 or so passes and R35s were done. 2 sets per season.
I'm sure we coulda found someone to beat us.....but in several years, never found any 914 that could....just think how bad their tires musta been. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I understand that the new Hoosier radials are the cat's ass....*bring money*. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Wasn't that the time that Brit spun the car on the first lap of the enduro? I shouldn't bring up the fact that he now owns the 5 lap enduro record running Goodyear radials....NLA. |

I shouldn't bring up the fact that he now owns the 5 lap enduro record running Goodyear radials....NLA. Right, he spun and I won. And by the way he only got me by .100 in the Autox and I broke a motor mount and couldn't shift to third. Also you guys got lucky at the big event in California. Sure wish I hadn't had a certain mechanic at that point which cost me both days. No handling on Day One (Saturday) due to a huge oversight and I wasn't handling on Sunday for other reasons. I love that Britain has the record for the Fall Enduro in his Lotus/Turbo Subi 914, but it'll be interesting to see what happens when some new competition shows up, which will hopefully will be soon. Still waiting for Britain to show up and compete at Cascade Lakes or maybe you want to show up there and compete. I offered you the chance to drive 222 there, remember?
