Default Re: Nothing Goes As Planned

What sizes FTS? 235/35/19 305/30/19?

I drove a new set of 888's for the first time in over a year at VIR last month. I gained 10-12lbs depending on the track temp. Overall they were fine and good enough while I was learning the car. But when my pace improved I found them losing grip at the end of the sessions. I lowered the hot pressures several times. For me, they seemed to go away above 35lbs. But most people I've talked to like them in the 38lb range.

Oh...they took more time than expected to scrub. If you're driving them to VIR you might have better luck.

Looking forward to this weekend!

Bringing some Hoosier just in case the 888's can't keep up with the car
