    Track Tire Question

    While I have not run the cups or Hoosiers yet my first choice of track tires were the Kumho V710. I did go to the 18" size all the way around though. My wife also has a Viper running this setup and we both track. So far we have used them for two two day track weekends, 4 heat cycles per day so 8...

    I think my cart is B4 my horse

    Slithr: Ditch the run craps and come on out to the track and discover why you really bought the car. It comes alive at the track but you need good rubber. With run classes you won't hurt it! B&R

    My first track day ...I want more... advice appreciated

    My advice would be shop both ways. See what swapping out for an ACR would cost you vs. the parts route. If you do the parts route you will still have a modded coupe but if you are really going to track it I would think that isn't bad. Richard

    2008 Coupe - Should I Buy?

    One thing to remember is the vert has no rollover protection, the hoops are hollow and the tubes the outer rubber is mounted to are aluminum. My wife has a no stripe venom red vert and put in a painted to match Autoform rollbar that I think looks great. Other than that, she has loved the car and...
