So I am gonna get my car back this week, and I am gonna get some seat time on the streets. Can anyone tell me what the best stuff is to soften up goodyear vintage blue streak grooved slick road course tires, Tommy said he was gonna soften up his tires, so i was curious what i should do.

Blitzforce,
I told you on page 10 of this thread Hot Lap. Tommy send me your email address & I will send you an email I just got about a Ferrari 458 dfwulff@comcast.net |
Tire conditioner
Blitz,
Check this page for tire conditioner... http://pitstopusa.com/c-132556-wheel...softeners.html |
Call roger Krause and find out what he thinks about using any stuff on that particular compound...from your descriptions (and Ernie's), it sounds like you have the "C" tires Krause offers for Cobras...slicks, but with the tread added.
|
I can't believe we have not figured out what tires he has.
Dan, go to this site adn let us know which ones you have. http://rogerkrausracing.com/pages/pricing.html Click on the link, select Cobra Tires, and then download the PDF file. It's got pictures. |
Tommy,
The email has been sent I hope you enjoy it. |
Tom and Dan, have you decided how those of us who want to attend the event can get our names on the list for entry into the track?
Thanks |
Anyone who plans on attending please pm me your name, and ill make sure it is at the front gate. I am going to tell them to allow anyone who wants to come on property, but to be on the safe side ill leave names with the front if you give them to me. Hope to see all of you there.

So sad to ruin such a wonderful view with that yellow car in the background. Some photogs just don't get it, do they? |
Ok, all the final arrangements are made. My car is LV. I'm flying out Monday for some testing, back in DC Tuesday, and then the race Wednesday. Hope to see some of you out there.
|
Thanks Tommy - see you at the track.
|
I think Buzz and tin-man get the prize for most miles traveled to attend the event :)
tommy & Blitz ... have a great race guys! :D |
I guess I get the prize for the least miles traveled (24)? Wait, there's no prize for that!
See everyone there, should be "interesting". |
Sorry guys.....

Tommy and Blitz, its been a great ride and I wish you both well. Drive safe. Buzz, big favor sir, please take many pictures. Thanks, My best to all. John AKA, tin-man |
Ok, one of the final pre-race updates. My best time in Maryland was 11.22. The density altitude was -1500. Today I ran in LV, with a density altitude of 4443 (humid day). That's a huge difference. My 11.22 in Maryland should equate to 11.8 in LV. I ran an 11.27. One caveat -- I was on an open road that undulated some; on a straight, treated track I should get reasonably faster. Wow.
|
I'll bet you MPH was slower than Maryland. I told you your 133mph was capable of 10s. That was warm tires on a warm road. Wait until you get to the dragstrip. :D

Thanks Lou! You are right -- almost 10mph slower. Also, Blitz hasn't practiced in 2 weeks, so at least we know he'll be fresh!!
|
Both of Drive Fast, Drive Straight......DRIVE SAFE !!!!!!!
Tony R. |
So Tommy and Dan, what time should we start showing up for the Big Event? Last word I remember was between 1 and 2 for the three races, but will there be some practice runs or...??? BYOB&BBQ, etc.?
