It had to be rescheduled due to extensive flooding and we were surrounded for days unable to get to any shops but had sufficient food to see us thru but the event is now being held next Thursday and as usual I will only be doing the afternoon session that has a total of 30 hot laps over 2 different circuits and am looking forward to find out exactly how my staggered 235 F 225 R set of new 200TW Nexen SUR4G semi slicks will behave after running on 80 TW Nankang AR1's previously.
I have weighed the used AR1 wheel and tyres on a digital scale and was surprised to discover that the 1 size larger Nexen and wheel combo was app 600g lighter.
FYI I have gone with the larger size front tyres in an effort to get the car to be a bit more playful or loose in the rear to hopefully be able to power out post apex with less front end push as the beam rear end is a step down from the previous CTR EP3's independent rear suspension set up.
