Sounds like you are street tires. Smooth driving.

Yes 225/15 Rivals on 8s.
Thanks! It's fun chasing. I usually turn my fastest times in pursuit.

No kidding. Something about that other pesky car in front of you just makes you want to take more risks.

Good driving line, although I think you can go a little harder on your R and keep it in upper powerband of vtec in some instances and a little more deep breaking action for that extra speed through the corners.

Thanks for the vid, keep them coming!

Well done, I always wondered how the ST stacked against the ITR. Your car has ridiculously good turn-in, what is your suspension setup?

Thanks!
The setup then was Koni Sports & stock springs, ASR 32mm (.095) rear bar, 225/15 Rivals on 8" Slips.

It is even better now. MCS two ways, Swift springs (Xian/ Marc Osgood prescribed rates) and 205 Hoosier SM7s.
IIRC, I was running 2:09s chasing that Fiesta.
Earlier this month I ran 2:02-2:04s chasing a TTC Golf R. He was on 245 ZIIs, but AWD and 376 HP only put him .5 sec quicker on our best session
