M1 drifting afterthoughts...

[stew180]

i was running federal 595's, 245/45/17,had 30 psi in them and fook all grip
so i dropped that down to 22 psi and it worked a treat, still
cant get over how easy it was on tyres, we had a total of 12
altogether and brought home 10. that included the tyres on the car.

i was running a mixture of tyres but they were all on rotational running 27psi took 10 an used 8. iv heard alot of people talking about running tyres backwards ???????

used 2 sets of part worns fitted with the correct rotation and ran 30psi..

x2 Greg best run i had of the day too a bit close at times, hope you get the big lady sorted without too much bother

Haha, my girlfriend wasn't impressed, but got over it when she saw I was laughing. There's a lad taking a look at it tomorrow, so it'll be back out again asap.

cheers lad. what were you driving? hada realy good run with a 32 and i think the big chaser was pretty close to me as well.

I love your car, couldn't stop looking at it all of the time. Don't remember being able to get close to you. haha

Running tyres backwards is supposed to stop delamination and create more smoke. I learned yesterday to never use a new tyre on one side and one just about fucked on the other side or you'll crash.

ye lad i find running the tyre backwards gives a bit more grip in the dry much more controlable and last about 2 to 3 laps longer well thats just me and seems to work
