TYRES And please don't anyone ever buy a tyre based on what sodding letter it has on the side of it, that's just ridiculous :lol:

Any time bud Mainly going from my own memories of going there, when I left my locking wheel nut key at home so couldn't fit the R888s on my spare set of wheels I'd had taken out there, so had to track on the MPSS. Turned out to be the better option, mainly because my speed was tempered because of this so I wasn't able to push as hard as I might've done otherwise along with the increased risks that extra speed brings.

Adding rear aero, assuming it's even remotely functional, is going to add understeer to the front on the faster corners. That's going to make the car feel very sketchy, especially at the Ring when you think it's a speed circuit (as opposed to somewhere with lots of slow corners). Unless you know exactly what you're doing as well as knowing the Ring very well (50 laps or so), or have had the chance to have a play on a track beforehand, I think you're simply going to make the car worse for you. Much better to have a car you know very well at a place as dangerous as the Ring, instead of a car you're experimenting with and have no faith in. You'll be really irritated if you end up crawling round the track because the car doesn't feel right, rather than just being able to enjoy it and concentrate. A car that feels weird is going to increase your likelihood of binning it, rather than reduce it. By all means book a trackday up beforehand and go play with a BGW, but please don't do it there for the first time.

He had me at fudge.

Oooooh tasty noms

Go MPS4S and 245/35/19 with 295/30/19, job done. Both about 3 and a bit percent smaller than stock, will balance each other out and not cause you any TCS issues.

Cake you say? I think that's the one key thing we're short of, so you're deffo in mate. Need your own weapon though. Don't think a flan base will cut it.

MPS4 all round not an option? Would be better.

I have seen all the Bear Gryll's episodes though I'd be fine, I've got my gang now!

MPS4S are better than the MPS4, which are better than the MPSS, which are better than the 050A. Given you're already running mismatched, you might as well go all in and get the best you can How much is left on the fronts btw? Generally you should be changing tyres at 3mm, don't leave it until you hit the 1.6mm wear markers.

The exact same thing happens every year, and did so when Obama was in charge too. US & SK do war games in the area, NK throw a strop and whinge, war games end and everything calms down again. The only difference this time is that Trump isn't known for being calm under pressure Realistically nowt will happen, no-one will push that far as NK know they'd be wiped out in seconds and they don't really have the ability to hit anything other than SK. Fatboy Kim has the most to lose, and he knows it: He'll only ever be a mouth and def no trousers.

Proper racing slicks are grippy, road tyres that are worn down to slicks are utterly useless New tyres have more tread, and that's what gives the vast majority of the grip. Easy as that. No point buying the RE050A any more, not when you can get MPS4S for the 370. Well, unless you're really felt very happy on the 050As, as they're certainly decent enough tyres.

Does make NK look a bit silly. Big posturing, can't get it off the ground

Fallout is worse, it'll kill you over a longer period and in the most awful ways: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_radiation_syndrome Basically it destroys your body at the cellular level, until there is nothing left. Like an more spiteful version of Ebola.

What you're feeling it mostly the balance of the car having changed with new boots on the back. Essentially you've shifted grip rearwards by a huge margin, so you now have tons of grip on the rear which is giving you the confidence to lean on them, but the fronts now have much less grip in comparison to before so you're feeling the horrible effects of understeer. Changing the fronts to match the rears will cure this, and then you can decide whether or not to change from Hankooks back to something else. Definitely worth exploring tyre pressures though, as has been said they will benefit massively from a couple of psi over standard pressures.

Do you still have the old P Zeroes on the front?

It won't stop you spinning out, if anything it'll increase the risk as the car will handle differently to what you expect. The Ring is not a place to be testing stuff like that dude

I'm going to take that as a compliment

Somehow you've managed to get the word ~original after the jpg on that image, no wonder they're not working! Remove that and everything is fine, like this: [img=http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z376/g1en23/Mobile%20Uploads/2062F1B2-7EE1-41C3-BF18-78E40D99BBD9_zps2bruintc.jpg]

What do the five maps do?

Yup, you don't want that, you want the link for forums. It's the one that starts . On the RHS of that pic, click the last one that says 'IMG', then paste that link.

Post the code you're using for PB. Sounds like you're not using the right link/tags.

Wow, what an arsehole. Hope karma caught up with him.

You don't have an external drive?

Sadly
