so is being a good driver

 

Thanks for the kind words. No changes from STS, other than the 13s with R-comps. Eventually I'd like to get an LSD and some other goodies, but for now, it's simply tires.

 

i still need to come out sometime and autocross with you. i don't have the crx anymore, i've got an 86 civic Si.. go back to STS for a day. heheheee..

btw, what's your setup? i'd be interested to know. eh, i'll just go to your board.

 

Nice job Ryan! Just think what BRAND NEW tires will do for you.

Sorry I missed the event...I was going to take you up on the co-drive. I hope to make the Salem event and/or the next Lee Hi event.

 

Thanks Jeff. Co-drive is always open, whenever you want.

kewl setup! i thought those looked a little narrow. well, compared to my 235's atleast! hehehee.

very nice setup though. glad you got the shocks BEFORE they were discontinued.

 

Yeah. They may need a rebuild/revalve/shortening here soon. I 'may' be able to get a 235 under the fender, but I run into a problem, mainly because Yokohama doesn't offer the A032R in that size, only a 215/50R13. I'm setup to run Yokohamas after the Kumhos wear out, little sponsorship deal I have with them. I guess it pays off to work for them.

 

Just make sure you use the S compound. I was pleasantly surplised by how little they sucked in an autocross situation considering nobody uses them. Rooks good!

 

damn nice

Yeah, the tires I requested are the S-compound.

 

Actually, in our region probably over 3/4 cars run on A032s. Well, of course heavy contingency and club sponsorship from Yoko Canada helps... But these tires are quite decent for auto-x, comparable to RA1 and Hankooks, a notch below Kumhos i'd say...notheing a little talent behind the wheel cant overcome. And on cold/rainy days the A032R-S is almost magic. Probably the next best thing to a Hoosier DS.
