Tom: Look forward to seeing you as well.

Les: The original problems with the sport cups were that I had them overinflated. With road racing, you have to let some air out. The best sticking PSI is 30-32 with the sport cups. Today, my tires weren't getting that hot and I had to put more air in. Also, because of all the right turns, my driver's side front tire gets hotter than the rest. I usually start off with 26 PSI as I gain 7 pounds of pressure, but today, the tires were only going up 4-5 pounds, so I have to compensate.

In regards to the bearings, you'll notice a grinding noise when you are turning the car. Say for instance you are turning left, you'll hear the grinding which resolves when straightening the wheel. If you are turning left, then look at the right wheels, and visa versa. There is a lot more road noise.

Les, I didn't spin today, but I did go off track, just at the end of the session. No harm done and I was fine, just drove back on track and then pitted. It happens. Just learn from it and be glad you were not hurt.

Also, Tom and Les and anyone else, if you see events by 10/10ths Motorsports, I just want to say this is a really good group. It's run by a man named Bill Neal who has done a really good job with these events. So, when you look up your local track, if you see a 10/10ths event, consider it strongly.

Hopes this helps. Good luck
