Winner's Woes? Naaa.

Hi, Tim!

Tirerack has now Bridgestone RE-11s in 305 & 325 19s (200TW).

I think at this time, the RE-71 305 19s square on stock rims
might still be the best overall, if not the biggest...

Stuff to take

These days, in autocross, with a newer Street class car, all you need is a helmet, some magnetic numbers (if you have steel doors), and an air gauge. Breaking things is rare, hence little need for...

Brake numbers... READ the WHOLE article, folks!

With that said,

Something is wrong with those braking distances. C&D tested the GTPP a few years ago, and even it had a 70-0 distance of only 149 feet. Obviously,...

FS for 2016? Can you say M3?

IMHO, the 6th gen Camaro has potential in FS; if and only if, a 1LE type variant with wider wheels is included in the class somewhere down the road. It needs 10" wide front wheels to win. The BMW M3s...

tire temps

I, too, have seen the advice to measure under the surface. But isn't 1/2" through the surface? Seems most tires have a lot less than 16/32" (1/2") tread depth; right? Am I missing something?
