Hey guys, I would love to come out. I won't be competitive just yet, as my minimal mods place me right at the beginning of modified, but what is the format? Do all the cars in a certain class go out on track at the same time? Or do all classes go out at the same time, for 20 minute sessions? Just curious how things work.

I also noticed that some guys in Stock are only a second behind the guys in modified.

You go out in the rungroup that you are comfortable and qualified to drive in regardless of class of the car. Times are compared at end of day. All sessions times are counted.

Default R888s

Hello. I'm going to the Willow Springs event with my C6. Since NTO1s are backordered I bought some R888s. I use TSW wheels which stick out a bit in the back and the R888s rubbed on the fender since they are wider than NTO1s. I bought them heat cycled and ran them twice yesterday. They are 265/35/18 and 305/35/18 and won't rub if you use wheels other than TSWs. Anybody want them cheap? I'll bring them if there is any interest.

I signed up for the Corvette Challange and am in modified. I don't make it to many Speed Ventures events but was at Auto Club Speedway earlier this fall.

Disregard. I looked them up and they are 100. After doing a little research, I think I'll stick with my NT-01's especially since I've gotten used to the 315 square setup. See ya at the track.

They are Treadwear 100 and feel like a Nitto NTO1. I paid $1200 for them and they have 3 heat cycles on them so maybe $400.

Sorry the "SRT" stuff is creating confusion. Anyway, sign me up for "Group V" and then order will be restored.
