Ah was gonna take a pic of the car for spotted thread lol,
Yeah I moved right onto tower and hid behind my mates in folding chairs in an attempt to hide from the wind (and hangover :o )
You think it was windy there you should of taken a walk down to Tower, that was bad!
Agree about Norris in the top ten with what is pretty much standard car isn't shabby at all!
Will be good to see what Funnell comes up with for his mini as well as his driving is up there for sure!
Daniel-...
Ah Daniel should of put a thread up about going yesterday as was down there as well..
The wind was mental!
Nick went well yesterday though mind!
Excellent hope the owner is on here and we can see the results :cool:

Exactly it only takes a few laps to get them somewhere handy in my experience.
I'm not suggesting pump them up to like 33psi, I got for 31 front 30 rear do so 3 laps quickly check the pressures then go from there..
I'm not saying come in every 3 laps and get a pressure gauge and temperature...
Ok underinflate them and see how trashed they get within the couple of laps.. Got a few sets in my garage which I can put pics of.. :o
Just my experience and what I do now, but everyone seems to have different ideas..
I even saw one guy being told to got out with like 20psi in his gti6'd 205! :S
Ermm surely you want to be starting them at the psi you want them at and them letting them down as you warm them up?
Otherwise your going to be running them under pressure?
I'd get an alignment check done before worrying about anything else...
When I had a play with the camber on mine I stupidly didn't recheck the Toe afterwards and it drove like you described..
Just to add, if you have an early sessioon you need to get sound checked as well (the car that is)
The queue is normally quite long to get this done early doors!
