No, I'm helping out during the 12hrs At The Point. I'm dying to go road racing, so I'm hoping to meet some people there while I'm working.

Well, I'll be at the Pro Solo so it looks like we will both be standing around in the rain this weekend.

I dropped even more pressure and the car felt better. Now running 35 front and 33 rear cold.

Oh damn, I guess I'm going to have to try that now. What front bar are you using?

Comptech set at soft (I probably need to stiffen it up somewhat but that setting works for smaller Victoracers).

Grassroots just had a comparison between A6 and the V710. Pretty much a tie but they were running the A6 with pretty high pressures so now I am confused.

I'm using the Saner bar on the middle setting. What pressures were Grassroots using?

The A6 was on a Mini (205/50-16 I think) and they were running high psi like ~50s rear and 45 front. I'm sure the 50 rear is an attempt at rotation but the pressures are way higher than Hoosier recommends for the A6. Hoosier recommendations for a car between 2800 and 3000 lbs is around mid to high 30s (HOT).
