Looking forward to it Jim! Shawn will be registering in the coming weeks, so all we need is one more to make a full class. Hopefully Carter and Jim will make the trip down.

I haven't driven it yet, so ask me after my 1st run
Car owner is Marc Pfannenschmidt-he and Tommy Pulliam finished 9th and 4th, respectively, in the car at Topeka.
See you B Stockers there!

I've driven an A-stock AP1 (on hoosiers) and I must say they are fun little cars. Toss it into the first offset and you'll see why that car is in AS and ours is in BS. Light & nimble with a small wheelbase. Oh, and try to keep the back-end behind you...I couldn't! ![Lol](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol.gif)
Anyone planning on making the trip to Dixie?

I have tons of frequent flyer miles...wonder if I could pick up a ride, somewhere...anyone know of any FS cars that need a tire warmer? Or, I suppose I could slum in BS...well, probably not after that comment

After the Pro Finale last year, I realized you really need Hoosier wets - so when it came time to replace my SPT's, I went with some 420 treadwear Kumho ASX's. Cheap, comfortable and wear like bricks on my car with ~-2.0 degrees of camber.

IIRC, Harvey was 5th on the new Dunlop Direzzas Star Specs which are quite good along with the new Toyo T1R's (a guy won ES on these tires). The SPT's are best in a torrential downpour with plenty of standing water on course. If there's only a fair amount of standing water on course, the Hoosier wets will outperform them every time. So since I'm screwed in the wet anyways, I went with a tire that will last forever on a car running a fair amount of -ve camber.

#23
At the Finale, 10 were in BS - Brian Coulson was 7th (whatbadgerseat), Isley was 8th, Shawn (my co-driver) was 9th and I was 10th. We were all on SPTs.
IIRC, Harvey was 5th on the new Dunlop Direzzas Star Specs which are quite good along with the new Toyo T1R's (a guy won ES on these tires). The SPT's are best in a torrential downpour with plenty of standing water on course. If there's only a fair amount of standing water on course, the Hoosier wets will outperform them every time. So since I'm screwed in the wet anyways, I went with a tire that will last forever on a car running a fair amount of -ve camber.

For the sake of accuracy, my co-driver, John Rogers finished 2nd to Carter at the Pro Solo Finale while on the Star Specs.
