I would rather budget and save money on tires when i could spend that extra money saved on more seat time than just more suspension adjustments and the results of them. make sense?
for instance i went 2 years without changing my entire suspension setup because i wanted to conentrate on my driving rather then modifying the car. That why i have 36+ track days under my belt and i am an instructor this year, if i spent all my time and money replaceing parts that could have been saved i would have half the time by now, and probobly still wouldnt be that intune with my car.

It's funny, you think exactly like a I think a driving instructor should (all about the driving), and I think like a pit mechanic should (all about the car). I really do need to concentrate a bit more on the driving, but I have been a pit mechanic my whole life so I just can't bring myself to ignore the car. I think you might be surprised at how much of a difference 1/16" can make. And I would probably be a bit surprised at how much saying fuck the car and just driving it for a while can make. As soon as I finish the projects that I already have started I think I am going to do that for a while.
