Car Thaaang! (Weds Mar 29)

Unread postby Bob » Sat Mar 25, 2023 8:40 pm

OK, lets plan on Weds. Mar. 29 for the next 4-wheeled romp. Need to go somewhere new! Or where we haven't been lately. Suggestions welcome.

Probably 10:00 at the Gate.... :cool:

I'll have the Snake/VA 58 and Old 16/VA 58 routes loaded as options.

Sorry I missed it! Too much stuff going on, go figure for the old retired guy... Cup tires are put back on the RS, so hope next time!

It was a blast--probably the best ride I've made in the Cayman yet. US58 from NC16 to Damascus, Va. and no traffic to contend with this time. Crazy fun. <bana>

I'm pussying out and going with the Conti Extreme Contact A/S. My Veloster is a daily driver and in recent track tests the UHP A/S was only 1 second slower per lap than their Extreme Contact summer.

I've thought about 200 treadwear street legal trackday tires but not sure about wet road performance.
