Per the guys at Hoosier/Conti I ran them at 35psi hot. I run -2.75 camber up front and the stock setting on the rear. Zero degree toe. I think adjustable camber arms are on the winter upgrade list... a -1.5 or -2 setting in the rear will help with grip at trackout and help with wear.
I ran my ECFs for three hard HPDE days. I shaved lap times throughout the weekend. (BIR Donnybrooke and Competition Course). My times were actually better than with my used Pirelli slicks.( I have a couple friends with M2s running ECFs as well and they are showing fast times and consistent...
Here is the response I received from Continental:
Matt,
Thanks for visiting the Coni Website to submit your question. I would recommend starting your Cold Pressure Settings @ 26 – 28 psi and after a 20 – 30 minute track session, your HOT pressures should be no higher than 35 psi. Feel free to...
I was on a short track (no highspeed corners) and ran them from 36 to 38 hot. 32-34 seemed too soft when they were hot. I also saw wear pretty far onto the sidewall (used some tire chalk to mark the sidewall and wear ranges). The 36-38 range seemed to solve that a bit without getting too hard...
I haven’t swapped to my streets yet so can’t see the entire tire, but from what I can see, I’m happy with initial wear. The track we ran is very tough on tires because the surface is pretty bad. I can usually see some deg on the shoulders but not what I had expected on theses. I’ll take some...
Hi TMO gang. Ran my first event with the new Conti ECFs. Initial impressions are positive. I'm running a staggered set up, 295/30/19 up front and 315/30/19 in back. It took about three laps on the short track we ran to get up to temp, but once they reached a good operating temp, they came in...

Car's looking great Tony! You guys should consider traveling to Road America in April of 2023 and driving with the Northwoods Shelby Club. http://www.nwshelbyclub.com/ Its been the "season opener" for a bunch of us from MInnesota the past few years. And with RA's resurfacing project, it will...
Interesting conversation and anecdotes. Good to hear others experiences. I haven't torqued past 120# on wheel nuts for the past 3 years of tracking. Especially on my flow forged aluminum wheels with slicks. I always check torque after the hubs have cooled from track temps and have never had an...
