We did pretty well since this was blue's second auto-x and this was my first auto-x ever.
Actualy its my 3rd but my 2nd didnt turn out so good at all, since my tires were 8 years old and bold i dont think i even learned anything at that event...But this event was by far the best with my Falken Azenis on and Steve with a crazy fast vette as my instructor....he is by far the best instructor i ever had, i learned alot from him.

How do you like the Azenis? I assume your referring to the Rt-615s correct?

Yes 615's . I just cant believe why i dont see everyone on those tires. They a cheap but grip like glue. They worm up really fast i didnt even need to go a full course to get them up to temp, also that day it was about 85f to 90f temp outside and i didnt get to overheat them as i read about this problem from some people, to me it was all good. These tires have an amazing grip but once they start to slide they do it very progresive and predictable maner. I found that the best pressure for that day was 42psi hot front and 41psi hot rear that way i got even wear almost all the way to the roll limit line on the sidewall.
