. . . but drove back with the new Cooper S on Saturday.
This car is a pretty good time.

Pretty minimal, LSD, cloth seats, some interior goodies.

How long until the test and tune?

Yup. LSD and that's about all the goodies. Found a great deal on some SSR comps with Hoosiers already mounted.

I'm thinking I'll go ahead and get a set of V710s for the Rotas. Once the Hoosiers are gone, I'll put some Azenis on the SSRs for wet events.

Now I'm just waiting to get through the break-in period, hopefully before the Test and Tune.

I wouldn't be so sure about you not beating me—I dont' think that I've been competitive. Ever. But I hope to make you work for it.:P

I think the lsd will make a world of difference. At least not having it gives me a good excuse for not being competative. Mine will be out of warrenty soon and I am going to drop in a new pulley and do some other stuff so I will at least start getting beat in a different class.

If you're going to continue to run R compounds, put them on the SSR's and run the Azenis on the Rotas. No sense giving up unsprung weight. Congratulations on the new ride 8) - AB
