[QUOTE="toofast4u, post: 1577588, member: 3891"] The one thing that sucks is you don't see your run as a spectator does. Next time I need somebody to video tape it as several people came over after my runs with positive commits about my runs and how loud my car was at wot. Also I just found out why my car felt like crap I just don't know how it happened. The night before I increased the pressure in all my tires so my fronts had 40 psi and the rears had 35 psi. When I arrived at the track some experts who ran the same tire combinations said to increase the rears to 40 psi which I did after I checked them and they were the same as the night before. After my first lap by myself something felt loose so I came back into the pits and checked my tires for damage and the wear pattern to see if it was rolling everything looked ok so I went back out. I thought it was the 555R on my rear sidewalls causing the issue since they are really drag radials so I just took it easy in the corners. It turns out something happened which caused my driver rear to loose 30 psi so it only had 10psi which was enough to keep the sidewall up. The really strange thing was I have wear on the full tread face, but non on the sidewall which is what I would expect if the tire was under-inflated. What really sucks is I know better just with everything going on I wasn't thinking straight which is bad and dangerous. If I would have had a couple good laps on solid tires I don't think this would have happened and if it ever does again I will know exactly what is going on. [/QUOTE]
