ran autox today, some observations

i started with 48 lbs up front, and 50 in the rear. first run, the tail was coming out all over the place. i ran 2 runs like that and it was crazy! normally it understeers like mad, but it was oversteering! i was having a blast but the times weren't 1st place so i started messing with it. i dropped the rear to 45 lbs and it was a little better. i spun out though. then i dropped it some more to 42 lbs and it was still better, but not GREAT, then i dropped the front down to 44psi to try to get some understeer and i had it balanced about right. i could feather the rear with the brakes and my last run i shaved 2.2 seconds off my fastest. i placed 3rd in DSP. i think i was oversteering because it was VERY cold out. prolly no higher than 50 degrees. the tires were hard to get warm, or at least the rears were. last autox i ran 38 psi in fronts and rears simply because my compressor died on me anyway, today was a great day of oversteer
