    Since it was my first ever autocross, I was trying to take everything in. I was there to have fun and not take it to seriously. I will definitely be paying attention to tire pressure next time.

    Thank you that's exactly what I was looking for. Their web page is kind of wonky when it comes to trying to find specifics (see full post)

    Generally speaking fueling the car doesn’t take that long. However, you do want to get the car fueled as quickly as possible because you are limited to five crew over the wall while fueling (which includes the driver in the car) AND nothing else...

    Redline sells 75-140 with and without friction modifier. The lube with modifier was fine in my Ford trac loc without additional modifier.
