This was my first time ever on this track and I was still learning my lines, brake points and how to use the toyo proxes r888 tires. By the end of the weekend, I had shaved over 6 seconds off the lap times that I was putting down in this video.

          And nice choice with the r888's, my fav.

            OMG, you are so inspiring! Whenever I start to get bored w/my Festy I just have to read your posts!

            Why would anyone want to own a Ferrari when they could own a Festiva?!?!? :p

            What would you consider an equivalent(ish) street-legal tire to those 888s?

            09 Kia Rondo--a Festy on steroids!

              Thanks! The festiva is the best kept secret in track day weaponry, the car really makes it easy.

              The R888 is a street legal tire! I drive mine on the street regularly. Look up toyo proxes R888 mine are 185/60/13 and they don't rub. My fenders are rolled and stretched and I have coilovers.

                  • Max, we have to be courteous of other cultures, in Canada that word is offensive. Maybe stubborn donkey is a better label for me.:p

                            • They are already invading down here, I think there are more Canadians here than Arizonans in the winter. Very nice people though.

                              Okay, back on topic.
