Nice results, but I bet you had much more tire than the Nismo, and a much better tire at that. It's more about the driver regardless.

Did you ever auto-x on the stock tires?

I was on sticky street tires, Bridgestone RE-11's but at these events we have a separate street tire class vs race tire class.
Actually given how cold it was I think the stock tires may have done better, being a little more narrow I might have been able to get more temperature into them. It was only 40-45 degrees and very windy. I never got to auto-x on the stock tires, I pulled them off in near new condition so I could sell them.

Me - 13.53 1/4 ET
Him - 15.06 1/4 ET

Hmm... something says they should focus more on learning to drive their cars as apposed to bashing ours!

Amen! :tup:

Yeah, I saw your thread on the RE-11s. Just got a set myself....can't wait to put them on.
