Hey Paddock people,
With a dedicated track car, whats your alignment setting? My dad and I set ours up with what we thought is right. After about 10 track days I removed the RA1's and noticed the wear pattern isn't even. I can't remember if the front or the rears were more uneven. I flipped them around on the rims to get them to last longer. Any help, as always, is much appreciated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Shane |

Sounds like too much camber, especially from the wear. I just dont think these cars require that much camber until youre wearing slicks and move into really high spring rates. That's actually true with most cars. Until you have enough mechanical grip from the tire compound and weight transfer onto them, you are actually decreasing grip and increasing wear, especially on the inner edge. Tire temps would confirm this for sure. That might be why it feels darty/skaty, especially in a high speed sweeper like Bishops.
