    A Big "Thank You" to Prefix & Dick Winkles

    Hello all, I own a 2009 ACR which is a dedicated track car. I recently decided to add the upper canards, similar to the ACR-X, to my car; however, I couldn't find a mounting template anywhere on-line or from any vendors. While doing research here, I came across an old thread that mentioned...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    Just wanted to post an update: After several track days this year, the media blasting of the inner lip of the rims has worked :headbang: I have not had any tire slippage at all! However, one thing I have learned is to ensure the tire bead has a VERY good seal to the rim, otherwise it will...

    Good article with good points made on all three cars. I thought it was interesting that SRT Engineer Chris Winkler was on hand as well.

    Steering Issue

    Never had that issue with my 09 ACR. I would have certainly noticed it, especially at the track.

    Track Insurance

    I agree with Allan 100%. In addition, most "track day" insurance policies only pay out if the vehicle is considered a "total loss", meaning they will not cover cosmetic damage or engine failures. Also, be sure to either remove your license plate or cover it while your car is on track so it's...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    Thanks for the good information and welcome to the VCA :2tu: I finally got the rims media blasted where the tire bead sits in the rim. I'm interested to see how effective this will be in eliminating the tire / rim slippage. I've heard of using hair spray to mount the tires. I may use this...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    You're correct about the notches in the rims. They're machined into the rims during manufacturing to prevent tire / rim slippage. Nissan has been doing this to the GTR's rims for several years. Glad to see Dodge & SRT are doing this to the Gen V ACR's wheels.....God knows it needs it due...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    Thanks for posting this as well. It was definitely an interesting read and very informative from Toyo Tires. It seems to confirm my suspicions of too much tire mounting lubricant. I still plan on having the inner lip of the rims media blasted just as a preventative measure. I plan on...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    I just read through the thread. It had some good information and ideas. Thanks for posting it. I'm starting to think too much tire mounting lubricant is a contributing factor along with the aggressive R compound and full race slick.

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    I thought of that as well. I plan on speaking with the guys at the shop the next time I take the tires / rims in to be re-balanced.

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    I contacted Hoosier and they recommended 30 - 34 PSI (cold) depending on the ambient temperature and type of track. That's considerably higher than what I was used to with the Michelin PSC's, but that's what Hoosier suggested so I'm going with it. I also have the camber set to -2.5 (front)...

    Tire Spinning On Rim During Track Use

    Over the last several months of track use, I've noticed all four tires continue to spin on the rims during hard braking and acceleration. As a result, all four tires / rims end up out of balance. This is definitely a bad thing to happen while on track :omg: For your background knowledge, I...
