Default Great weekend at TWS

The last weekend at TWS was my most exciting. This was my 3rd weekend at TWS (1 PCA dn 2 PDS events).
Although i was running solo, got 2 sessions with an instructor and what a difference it makes. By applying a couple of improvements my instructor pointed out, i was able to improve my time and bring it under 2.05 consistently. Still ways to go, but exciting to see progress. Always a great group on instructors at TWS.

Finally got approvet to run with the yellow group.

I am running my spyder stock except for track pads. I am getting 18" wheels and NItto NT05 tires for the next DE. Also, wondering if i should LCA and adjust the camber?

IMHO, don't change the camber until you get used to the sticky tires. You may like the stock set up.

thanks VR.

I was considering camber due to excessive outer tire wear in the fronts. I have found the stock setup and street tires quite gripy and so it will take some time until i get used to the additional grip of the nt05's. Just did not want them to wear out like my stock ones.
