The only person I spoke with who was running them also a STF driver was doing quite well but at the end he overheated his tires as well.

What I meant about the conti's though is that they are significantly faster than the RS3's. I was something like 2-3 seconds down from my competitors at Nationals but on day 2 when I finally got everything figured out I was actually a couple tenths quicker than they were in their Mazda 3 during the first few runs before they got some heat in the tires. Were still talking about track temps above 65 degree's so its not like it was super cold.


I'm thinking I would have been about 1-2 seconds quicker on Toyo's but the big Achilles heel of the car is that it really lacks corner exit traction. I'm going to play with the front sway bar until I get that inside spin under control.
