he's not on V710s though

I run under 30 with the Advans on my STU RX-8, but run mid-40s front low-30s rear with BFG KDW2s and 42 - 44 front 30 - 42 rear with V710s on DKNV's Stock RX-8

bottom line, not all tires, setups, or surfaces are equal ...

good thing, you would have really screwed everyone on the (worthless) PAX with the right pressures

ok i ran the car on the last autocross. the car felt loose, but i think that is due to the damp track conditions. Also i had a leaking valve stem on the left rear. between 1st run and second my tire pressure dropped to 10.5psi!!! yikes!!! so its safe to say this autocross session is out the window. but my times were consistant. im still about 3.5 seconds from the the leader of the class since the last time.
