You changed up sizes? When I saw her last you were running the 245/40r17 all around right?? Did your suspension changes allow you more room for rubber?

I had 245 on the front and did some short testing on some prototype parts to run larger rims, and then I switched to the ridetech tru-turn kit up front when a few friends of mine David, Mary, and Crosby all said I really must run the kit, so I installed the kit and did alot of testing(i know Ridetech tested it) but I don't have a mini tub car so the balance for my 275/40/17 on all four corners is slightly different then ridetechs 48 hour Camaro, so I ended up with 800lbs springs on the front 225lbs springs rear, and my rear sway bar rate is.........wait I cant give away all my secrets

Nice tires! Will you be taking them to Scottsdale and Del Mar in November? It's been a while since you've made it down this way.

No worries. Have fun in Pleasanton and scuff those Falkens in so you're ready for Scottsdale. If I'm not too burnt out I'm going to try and make that show. I've never been good at the ol Good Guys Peanut, but there will be a lot of familiar faces out there for me to cheer on in the shoot out, and I would also like to run against a few of the cars coming in from the mid west.

I have been using grip tape on my clutch and brake pedals for a little while and the clutch pedal tape shreds after a good track day, for daily use it can go for months without tearing, my question is what some of you guys are running on the pedals
