  1. #1) My new summer tires, Hankook Ventus V12 EVO K110 (225/40/18)

     

    #2) Northeast a.k.a. sheisty road central

     

    #3) commuting, highway, and town probably 50/50

     

    #4) driving style is spirited

     

    #5) Stock Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 215/45/18

     

    #6) Compared to the RE050A's, the Hankooks are a little softer, which I don't mind because the tire makes up for it in tractions. Nice sticky summer compound always find little pebbles stuck to the tread after a good ride. Not as responsive as the Potenza's but definitely quieter and definitely better wet traction. I'm rather satisfied with my choice for summer tires, got the on tire rack for 515 shipped and I'm expecting my $50 rebate in the mail within the next two weeks or so.

  2. speaking of ladies at the track, they were running sleds that day too and there were a couple of ladies runnin' under 12's with those things!

  3. ^^ thank you! yea I had a blast. A little bit of nerves off the line the first time but it was definitely a blast. haha the first run i got to take I lined up with the stage lights and accidentally went like an inch or two too far and the top stage light on my lane went out so i tried to back up and correct quick and by the time i was back in first the 3-2-1 takeoff lights were already goin so i wasnt able to properly launch but my first run had a 1.09 reaction time a 2.3 sixty foot and ran 13.9@102.11. seeing that my goal for the day was to break 14.0 and i did that on my first run i was verry happy.

  5. 20- click method does not work for nothing for me. Moved the seat all the way forward and up and the Navi box was in the way of my arm so I moved the seat back some and I was able to feel it from the front. Had my finger on the release for that clip but didn't have the leverage to disconnect it.. was able to hit it with a pair of small need nose pliers and NO MORE CHIME! I'm so relieved. Sucks I'll still have to remind my one buddy to buckle his damn belt because somehow the sound goes in one ear and out the other for him every time he rides with me
  6. I got the AT program for free when they were giving it away for that limited time. Now I have a stock stage II map from cobb and i hate the studder issue. what causes that/can the use of the program help smooth it out? I want to learn how to do all that fancy tuning stuff it just all seems to complicated right now cuz ive never been able to play with it. Something about OEM O2 sensors aren't that accurate either?
