You gotta remember Gaetano doesn't hang around a bunch of Pro Posers... he's been at the track talking to NASA guys... running TT and other classes. They are doers.

Read the NASA forums (these guys run on the track more than post on the internet about wanting to run on a track). Many indeed have been switching to A6 in recent years over the R6.

Wait, did I just give Gaetano a compliment?

Can't we talk about 200 TW tires again?

I'm not saying Big G doesn't know what he's talking about -- or even the guys he may be hanging with...

BUT --- ALWAYS THE BIG BUTT....

Peoples cars are different - different weights - different everything.... this isn't spec racing. So what works for one guy and doesn't work for someone else is really just pure useless information as far as I'm concerned. IT's got to be done on a case by case basis...

What tracks people are running - how hard they're running - and all of that - there's just so many variables. So an A6 on one car is different than on another car depending on so many things. What's the ambient temp? etc.

As usual -- I'm always trying to post knowing that many other people may be reading this stuff... so I'm also throwing things in as food for thought. Some read and never post...
