    Default suggestions?

    Hello all,i was looking for some advice on some setup questions.We have noticed some different tire wear on new hoosiers tires i was wondering if anybody else has and if so any ideas on possible setup changes to aid in tire performance.The chassis we are running are a protoform,caracal c and a modified lynx to almost protoform chassis.All cars are close on setup only difference is lynx is a pull rod rear.The biggest problem we are seeing is inside tire wear and tires dropping off after about 4-5 heat cycles.any ideas would be great thanks in advance Dave Satterley Jr

    Default tire wear

    I have been using my 55 hooshier's for practice and qualifing.then switch to my 45's for the race. then after 2 races dismount the tires and turn them around,so I can get another race out of them.In a perfect world where money is no object. I would put on a new set every weekend . LOL I purchased 2 sets of 45's at the beginning of the season and I still have a new set remaining. I did purchase an old tire machine for $100.00 us dollars It has come in handy. Hope this helps. I am not the fastest guy out there usually run 5th or 6th ,but am having a blast. And you meet the nicest people in the Vee class.I have been to the glen and njmp, limerock, and nhms I have met nothing but top quality people. Sorry for rambling Hope this helps.
