Haha, at least you admit it! Funny how these things are so sensitive to a bit of pressure difference in the tyres.

Concise!

I thought you we going to say that your tyres were at about 25psi and i'd agree that you'd notice a big difference.

8psi

Might explain why your S got out of your snowy drive and the R8 didn't!

the r8 plowed some nice grooves for the s to run in.

i am using toyos as well.plus the temp back then was well below freezing i bet my tyre pressures were even lower.


the handling was so bad it felt like the car was broken in the middle.


my love for the s2000 has returned

you win. one of mine was down to 30 (rest were 33/34) and it effected handling.
i still cant believe a small difference can make such a big difference to handling.

yours must not of handled at all!
