Sweet! Yes, same thing for me & TT. I have enough points left to upgrade from 100 TW AR-1 to 40 TW AR-1, and keep the same 295/30/18 sizing. Then my build is maxed out in its current class. If I go any further like a proper big wing and proper front splitter, as well as stripping the car, I'll be in another class up. I can still swap my battery and passenger seat to save some weight though!
It also helps that RR is cheaper... |

For wet running with substantial standing water though, I'd take the Nankangs. I thought they performed very well in the wet. RR's are good in the wet up until the point of standing water - no tread so they hydroplane much easier. I found the RR's to be a bit quicker then the NT01's with a similar feel - they seem to like a bit less slip angle compared to the Nittos. If you've ran NT01's before you know they are their quickest when worn down to when there is only two circumferential grooves. The RR's are essentially this their entire life, and hold up and wear just as well as the NT01's. They are slower than equivalent 40TW tires like Hoosiers and R1's - but last MUCH longer and do not heat cycle out. |

No Track Days, working on the trailer
Not at the track these days so worked through this project. Cleaned the plywood floors and did some other prep work, then laid down 2 layers of epoxy floor over the past three days.

Projects this weekend have included installing shorter BW endlinks since the KW ones ended up being too long after installing the Hotchkis front bar last week, replacing a bad O2 sensor, and finally installing the seats I bought way back in December haha
Looking forward to seeing how everything is at the track next weekend!

Those look great. How do the OEM 3-points work with them? Comfy for around town usage?

Main thing I need to figure out soon is 3-pt belt though as I can’t get the receptacle through the seat (so it’s on the outside) and the belt rubs my neck a bit so will probably be getting some sort of padding for it. The real test will be the 4hr drive to Hallett this week.

Could you use the Schroth Quick Fit? I know they have a street legal version with the red push-button release.

I have read mixed reviews about it, and I'm honestly not sure how I feel about using them or not with the fixed back seat. Maybe someone in here can chime in. I have a set of both driver/passenger quick-fit pro's.
