Thanks.
Bill,

FWIW, I'm going to start at a 90mm rollout. I'm also on Tekin v200 (though, do you have the version that lets you go under 0.5s delay? If so...) Also, I was running a 45/43 split, but Wednesday I tried the 44/42 and it was much better. And with how little the tires wear, it's a lot less painful to cut off all that foam. In fact, the one tire I have lost this past month was a 45 cut that I chunked.

See you tomorrow.

Todd M.

Thanks Todd. Yeah, it goes down to 0.2s delay. I was totally getting smoked on the straight Wed night though, so my settings need some love. Mike updated my software and I asked him to keep my settings from V.198...didn't quite work like I hoped speed-wise. It was faster with 198. I'm inclined to shave some foam too. Been chunking a lot and handling is a little wonky on the sweepers. When I drove Dave's with really thin foams it just seemed to handle more precisely with less 'soft' feeling.

I'll probably be picking all the Tekin guys' brains on their V.200 settings.

Have we solved the breakfast debate yet? Doing last minute wrenching and don't want to miss the final decision. Cause that would suck to show up at the wrong place.

P.S. My couple of pennies on the dot thing. At first I hated them. It was like Speedracer. . But when I realized it was my fault and not the dots I grew to like them. Keeps me honest and will improve my skills as a racer.

Default This is my final answer

OK guys, I have been thinking about this all day and I am 50/50 on the dot thing.

Its not that I cant decide whether I love them or hate them. Its that I hate every other dot. So if you guys dont mind I am going to go around and mark them in 2" high letters alternately "Love" and "Hate". Also can we make sure to put them down in the same place every time? Because I would like to keep the love and hate evenly distributed through a turn.

Thanks!

-G
