Message	I have around 500 hours of wheel to wheel racing as we have been racing in the 24 Hours of Lemons series for some time but it's always nice to take out an actual GT car like the Z for a few laps. (we run a 2000 crown vic with 5 speed - terrible handling) I have no intentions of running the Z more than around once a year or so - probably at Sonoma which is my home track. I'm sort of kicking myself but last time around I bought Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires which are a 300 tread wear tire. I should have probably shot for something in a 200 tread wear as they makes a pretty big difference but I didn't want something too loud when cruising around. I typically run around 26 lbs cold which heats up to around 30 or so hot...anyone else have tire pressure thoughts? Out of curiosity - what are the stock alignment specs?
