Sure did. The day before the Redline event. I'm just wondering if I need another once since I did a 180 and my rear tires went over the curbing at the event. One thing I did notice was the car squirming under hard braking. Might have been because of the new unshaved R comps.
Did you notice the squirming before the spin?


You are probably alright unless the impact was pretty dramatic.

Yes. The squirming was there on Saturday, and my spin was Sunday afternoon. I squirming got better as the day went on, but there's still some there. I don't think the impact that was bad with the curb, but I guess I'll find out sooner or later.

If the squirm was there before the spin then it is probably just new tire squirm. Car felt planted on rails at the autoX today.

Good times guys! My car felt really good. Wish I could have improved some more on my afternoon runs, but ended up with a 45.63, not terrible but not very good.

Since Fall Colors is on the same weekend as the next autox, I won't be attending Can't wait for next season though!!!!

45 seconds may be bad for you but it is good for me! I finally broke into the 45's on my last run. That means I dropped about 2 seconds from my first runs.
