Note to self: rotate tires between events

Can you tell which ones were where?

I was planning on using them for one last event but it may snow...my shitty all seasons will be better than zero tread

From left to right: Front Right, Rear Right, Front Left, Rear Left?

Holy shit, those are far worse than mine! If it snows on Sunday, is there going to be an Autocross?

It's front left, rear left, front right, rear right.

There should be. There's an email thread going about it, a lot of people will bow out but a few want to anyways. I want to if it does, that'd be a blast

Rotate them and in a couple thousand miles you'll have racing slicks.

I've basically run 3 events a month more or less. I didn't rotate for 2 months. I bet if I had rotated I could at least have gotten half a season in next year...

Oh well. Hankook Ventus RS-3's are $112/tire on tire rack right now. There should be a sale sometime before next season, I bet I can get a set of 4 for $350 or less. That's perfectly reasonable for a season of autocrossing IMO. I'd spend nearly that much just to go to a track day.

I want to, but money may be an issue for me :/ gotta make another $20 before then! I will do it if I have money! Heated seats FTW!

Still, my guesses were pretty close on the tires though :) Just mixed up sides :(

I think I can still rotate mine, I have just enough tread on the fronts left to use them as pointless rear tires. But I won't be using them for awhile because of the 16s w/ZIIs I got.

Looks like you need a smidge less tire pressure to me. haha

I'm guessing the mailing list is for SCCA members?
