Nick,

How warm was it , as I always found on hot days the Sport Cups worked really well, whereas on cool days they were quite a bit slower. Came to a similar conclusion as you did in hot weather , as my times were spot on with both tires if the track was warm.

I ran both Hoos R7's 315 square and PSC2's. Best lap was later day 2 on PSC2's -- maybe track familiarity, but demonstrates how good those tires are -- amazing for a street tire!

No rubbing of the 315's up front?
 
Anyone been to a track in the last few weeks?
 
Not unless I'm gonna run studded snow tires.
 
Good eye in spotting that hood lift.

Is this of any real concern that would require corrective action?

2HP
 
Lots of pressure under that hood. Fender and hood gaps are opened up pretty well.
Air is getting in but not out. How fast were you going in those shots??

About 165mph at Start/ Finish and 70mph through the Bus Stop. Here's the in car video:

 
With the number of tracks you have been to, your bucket has got to be getting awfully full? Been to 20 tracks , already, over the years, but I think I will sit down with you when you get to Hastings in September, and have you help formulate my bucket list from all your favorites. Nothing like first hand reports from Quick Nick to save me the hassle of going to a few tracks that could prove there was a hole in my bucket?!
