Not technical so it belongs here.

Since I have been granted permission to race at the Nats this year, plus I'm sick of fearing for my life on the current tires on the Camaro, I looked into the matter. The tires on the Camaro are notoriously horrible with traction, as anyone who has driven with me or near me knows. I can spin at 60mph - I kept thinking the trans was slipping or something. Well, in addition to being Continental ContiContact EcoPlus Touring tires, they were made in the 24th week of 2000 according to the code. I found the stock wheels in the basement, and they have Goodyear Eagle GS-C's with better tread than the tires on the car now. (Dad had told me they were bald, that's why he replaced them with the Conti's and threw the Goodyears on the stockers). The Goodyears were made the 33rd week of 2000. So much for the idea of switching those ones for racing....

Long and short of it - Maybe dad believes me now that the Camaro should really get some new tires, considering either way they're about 4 years overdue for a change (Neither are cracking or anything though).
