Pete, having ridden in your car, i'm sure we've discussed this. I just can't remember the outcome. With you sometimes hopping around the corners, do you think that's causing the corrugated type of wear on the outside? Could softening the rear shocks/springs help bring wear back to a more even state?

Perhaps, I do get this type of wear on the front and back. I could soften things up a bit and see, it might certainly help me put power down earlier and harder exiting corners.

Nice. I think I might have picked up some of your tire pieces on mine.
