If you want to know how we did on kumho victoracers, check out the 2004 results here: http://pca-ggr.org/acresults.cgi
Hey I just saw this GGR PCA AX #2 video and it looks like you guys were off of the slicks and onto DOT rubber due to wet surface. That Arial kicked butt with those skinny little tires. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMhWt_7kGOM
Then I looked at results. http://www.pca-ggr.org/acresults/041407.html ...Man tell me AX isnt all about tire grip! Was Andrew having a tough time without the LSD when he was on DOT tires? I know my car was a bear to control in low grip situations with no LSD and DOT tires.
That particular autocross left everyone quite a bit annoyed, andrew and I were in the first rungroup and it was almost still raining when we were out on the track, then the track dried out and everyone else got to run for the second session. Andrew was driving my car in the morning, and the blue 914 in the afternoon with some skinny all-weather street tires. He drove my car again in fun runs and the track had dried out so much he beat his own time. Can you imagine what kind of surface difference that is, if he's faster in my car than the blue car?
Like I said AX is all about tire grip. I love to drag my AWD Mazda to wet AX events due to its huge traction advantage. Its a top 5 AX car in the wet, but drops mid pack in dry.
