Track tire vs Street/Track tire. You can't always have it all unfortunately. The PS4S is great in the rain as I found out last Friday in the track attack.

never stop wanting it all! :)

being in AZ rain is not an issue, but the roads are full of debris. like dust, pebbles, rocks, boulders. so you have that crap being tossed down the sides of the car from the fronts AND you might get 5k miles if you are into spirited weekend driving.

i did not think i would feel such a difference that is for sure.

Yeah, the Cup 2's are like glue. You literally pick up every single rock on the road in your fender lining. That slick like area for cornering is unmatched.

The HP cars are tuned for the cup2 tires. The PP cars are tuned for the PS4S so what you experienced makes sense. The springs are optimized for the extra grip the cup2 dishes out. I’d imagine if you put PS4S on those it would be a bit mushy feeling.

@traxiii any update on the cervini hood?
Should be shipping any day. The hood was finished and the louvers' paint was curing last Thursday. Hoping to have it and installing it before Thanksgiving.

I think the track alignment also plays a huge factor into it more than the tuning part. A properly aligned HP with the PS4S does quite well.

Took literally 3 minutes out of my day to install Steeda's trunk struts. Couldn't be more simple! Hood struts tomorrow (or the next day).

Which version of trunk struts? Was wondering if it needed the heavier duty with the spoiler and I was going to order over the next week or so.

I went with the larger wing option. I don't think it opens too viciously or violently. Absolutely takes way more effort to close given how the stock units had like -1 resistance and this one has perhaps +7 if you will. Definitely grab the big one! Cheers!

I see something added to the Steeda cart. Thanks for the video.
