Has the car been re-aligned since Infineon? I'm just curious, as I recall the right rear indicated a lot of neg camber..High temp inboard. As infineon is mostly right hand corners, I was wondering whether the tire temps were really indicative of something wrong?

The tire temps at both Thill and Laguna were both evenly spread across the tire. What was going on at Sears (at least first part of the day) was that the AR bars and the shocks were not set correctly. We were playing with the settings and found that I had mistakenly set the 4 shocks all at independant settings. One was full soft, the other full hard, one medium and one light. The car was WAY TOO MUCH stiff on the bars in the back. So the car was really heating the outside rear.

It's all better now!... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)
