What's your problem Grant still LOSING? so you think you can find a whole point by making accusations?
Where ever you got the idea that I was using PAX points is ridiculous.

XP PAX is stupid high. My Raw times are always top 5 or better. my PAX results are top 20 or better.


Sorry ya'll I know DON'T FEED THE TROLL

No accusations just facts.

You listed PAX time of 57.279 and your buddies PAX time of 57.227 as TTOD. When in fact your raw time was 1:05.537 and TTOD was set by an STU production class car 1:03.139

You'd drop to 2nd since the gap is much larger between your raw time and TTOD a couple of seconds as opposed to a couple hundreths. Hell thats the only one I checked who knows if your other times are correct?

But who cares this is all for fun right? You win! CONGTRATS! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

Andrew B or Steve N would have been tied for 1st. I just didnt want Joe R to grab top honors I see you're not too proud of your status JP and had to post somone elses times? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Maybe you should ask Brit to give you some driving lessons? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

But as you know AX is all about who shows up. I'm the national champ of 914cup 2007 currently because others didnt show up. Not much differnt than real world of AX. LOL!

Got to run what ya brung. last winter we were running Goodyear Canti's 430 compound. temps were in the 30's Only tiars I had so that what we run on.
But at least we were racing in the winter.

I am seriously thinking of A6's all around this year 275/35-15. Slicks take too much time to heat up. Leave the slicks for track days when heat is easy to make and tires need to hold up longer.

Ever try to find *light* 10 X 15 wheels? BTDT , no luck...... & good luck with them suckers up front...should you find any. By light I mean some thing like the 4, 10 X16s I have.....12lbs each.....which I no longer run up front.

I asked Greg Fordahl how he was able to make the 10 X 16s work up front on Mr. Gulick's 914. I got some words that didn't make much sense when I digested them....but I've never been the sharpest knife in the drawer....maybe if he talked real slow........ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Also.....I asked Hoosier which would get heat more quickly, A6s or R35 slicks. He said the R35s. Maybe if you'd try some new tires rather than castoffs.....but I fergit, you're gonna be a track rat....another DE hero? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hey old bugger,
Remember in a few hours I'll have two cars.

I don't know about that. Kiezer makes the wheel I want for AX only they will serve me well.

I have been doing testing with my pyrometer between my car 2 driver and a competative C5 at Nationals also 2 driver. His tires were in the 120's as were mine. He said he treid slicks and noticed that the car was quicker to point and turn in with the stiffer side wall of the A6. The vette was cooling his rear tires with water after the 2nd run.

With 2 drivers and warm weather I have no problem with grip.
Spring and fall get tougher and without a good co-driver this season I am probably screwed.

Tire science is tough stuff to digest.

That's God's own truth........
I'm not sure I understand everything I think I know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

One thing I think I know is you can't use data from a car that weighs 1200 lbs more than ours. It might be useful for *something*......I have had tires get greasy from heat generated pressure gains, but drop them back down to base pressure and they come back in. I think that is due to reduced contact patch not overheated rubber.

I now keep on top of pressure. It's not unusual to gain 5-7 lbs in the first 3-5 runs.
Slicks seem to get hot quicker (& cool quicker) partially due to having less mass than R specs.
Less tire weight is another bonus. My tire/wheel set ups weighs 30-33 lbs ea.

So.. I recalled this thread when looking for my 914 last fall. Now that I have one and the season has begun around here, are folks "playing" in 2008? Signing up regardless... mmm cones (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Yeah... it is going on. Just look in the menus area to find it and input your times. So far my times are good at the events but not so good here. TToD is generally a very fast car that is killing my times here. Damn you Ron Bauer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yeah.. that miata is pissing me off:D Well that and Leads 914. There is all the cars that run and then they come in about 1 to 2 seconds faster than everyone else.... sometimes. However, one of those two cars does end up getting top time. This last weekend it was some other Miata that has a full cage and 300 Hp with lot of rubber. Looks like crap but goes like a bat out of hell.
