It's great to support the vendors that help support SVTP.:beer:
i just saw The rs3-a's on a lincoln LS. they look pretty nice. i wouldnt mind trying them on my GT. get rid of these sticky tires.
SVTP Vendor Discount Tire Direct can hook you up with a good deal on them.
I'm with you. I'd totally pay to do that again.

Would it be fair to say BFG's help your Vette run cooler? ;-)
Those cars were so overheated it was ridiculous.
I'd like to set one up for later in the year.
Here is a thread started by a member who bought the MTs:

Same brand
Mickey Thompson tires is owned and made by Cooper. I have never tried them on my mustangs, but i just did just buy some for my Grand Cherokee and i have to say that i am very impressed. I was a little skeptical of buying them at first, but the price was right and they are better than the much more expensive Bridgestones they replaced. I will definitely consider Coopers for all of my vehicles.

Good to hear!! I just picked up the RS3-S for my daily driver (545i) due to good reviews on forums and tests. Stock size 245/40 18 front and 275/35 18. I will post up as soon as I get them on and have a chance to put them them through there paces.
Cool. Let me know what you think about them.:beer:
They need to have the fans set to come on earlier from the factory otherwise some of them do that in very hot climates. Were they LS2 or LS3 cars?
They were fairly new, so I would assume LS3.
:nonono: Oh chevy... leave it to them to have the fans come on at 230 degrees with the factory tune.
Texas is brutally hot though.
It looks like you had fun. I just got to do something similar for the military; we drove crown vics impalas and tahoes though. Nice write up.

Had the Rs3's on my marauder, very good tire.
Valve cover bolts with very slight oil
I've noticed some slight oil on valve cover bolts on passenger side. Is this something to worrry about. Is crankcase pressure building up? I have jlt oil separator connected. Should I replace pcv and if so, what's 2011 gt500 pcv needed. The factory one is blue. Rockauto says ev289. I've read to used ev279. Which pcv is correct

I think you have the wrong thread.
Do you have any cost comparisons? Great write up, looks like you had a blast!
