Ah, in Bryan's old car. I was only able to beat that car once. Luckily it was during the Pro Finale in 2017. I would have loved to chat with you. Unfortunately I was stuck getting demolished in SS trying to drive the Tesla against people with much smaller, lighter cars with much bigger tires and camber.

Anyway, I ended up racing the on Saturday and Sunday this last weekend and am very happy with the results, finally being able to compete at the top of the region, again. The car felt great. It wasn't drastically different as it was previously on 275's and 285's with RE's, Rivals, and 660's. But, it just did everything better. Cornering grip was better. Braking was better. And what I felt was extremely important, I could actually be more aggressive on the throttle when accelerating out of corners. The only thing I'm kinda worried about is the shorter second gear with the 315's. It's perfect locally, but it might not be ideal when in Lincoln or Crows Landing. But I ended up with FTD and 2nd in PAX, 0.055 back from first with a low turnout (30ish) with a local club on Saturday, and then with top PAX and fastest run on street tires with NWR-SCCA on Sunday. These results got me excited, so I signed up for Nationals when I got home and purchased another set of Yokes.

Vids for research purposes or whatever. I'm pretty sure my lens was smudgy.
