Nope just good ol' RS3, I really should not need the baffle. Im not fast enough to need it, but I rather have it and not need than one day need it and not have it.

Werd to that. If you've been to Gingerman, what times are you running? I know the RS3 IMO is probably the fastest tire. I ran 2 on the rear and z2's on the front on the last track day last year and somehow managed a 1:48.1. Those RS3's are awesome. I'm going to run them on a 4 corners this year and see if I can't get into the 1:47's or maybe even 1:46's without any aero.

I switched from the Z2s to the RS3s last year (because I am cheap) and was pleasantly surprised with them. I was consistently in the 1:48s-1:47s when up to temp and had a few in the 1:46s (my best being a 1:46.51). Hoping to best that this year & maybe hit the 1:45s. Not sure that's possible on OEM suspension (with Espelir springs), but I'm gonna try.

Nice, yeah no clue what times I ran at Gingerman in the past, but I know not fast lol.

Well the driver rear bearing and hub is done, put on some miles this weekend. Will probably do the passenger rear this week since it looks like cold and rain is coming.

Signature series is awesome.

Just installed my rear OEM hardtop hardware and shin-etsu greased my hardtop. The top is very quiet now. The hardware pulls the top down much more than the silly one-piece brackets. Now, I can go hardtop-on or top down with ease!

Damn expensive! Scott, sign up as an preferred customer on the AMSOIL website. My last dozen was about $8.70/quart, shipped to me.
