Alright I am getting antsy...

I am excited and nervous at the sametime, I did well when I was driving the Z, however it was a manual and RWD so it was a lot different than driving a turbo auto FWD.

I have been told to roll through the turns and power lightly through them to help eliminate wheel spin.

I have also been told to put 40psi in rear tires and 35ish in the front.

Here is the big question...WOULD you use light weight 15s (less rotational mass) with crappy michelin mxv4s (195/60/15) or would you use heavier (more rotational mass) 17's with good kumhos ecsta supra (215/45/17)??

The course will be fairly large as it is at an airport. If you have more specific questions drop me an email or post below....

I have also included the pre-registration of the cars in my class so far, its pretty cool that there are two Saabs (i am interested to see the other car)
