New ones are on. I was wondering why my rear kept coming out.

BTW: I was very very careful in the rain.

Well, I'm running -2.7 camber in the rear but carefully calculated air pressure with a borrowed pyrometer at test and tune days helped keep all things even.

It's been my experience that the S03's are stickiest early and get progressively slicker as they wear. It's almost as if the rubber compound is slightly different from outside in.

I think that we must all be a little more aware before we drive in the rain with a stick shift, rear wheel drive, car. Even if it's a no power Junker, it can whip out very easy with just a little to much gas
