 set your car up for it.  >>

Andy,
	My race car is far from finished.  May be done in time for September 
driver's school at Hallett.  One year between schools!  Any SCCA schools in 
Texas schools in July or August that I could go to?
    I will be running Kumho 205-55-14 on Daytona rims on my street racer 82 
spider at the time trials at Hallett in a week and a half.  Not much I can do 
with the 82, but I would welcome any suggestions.  I am running factory 
alignment specs, but with one degree negative camber.  You know the car, you 
and I played around at last years Alfa Rodeo "driver's school."  
	Any tire pressure suggestions?  I ran my Yokohama 008R's at 38 front 
and 36 rear cold last year.  I have read that Kumhos do not like pressures 
over 35 pounds, hot.  I guess that means starting cold about 31 front and 29 
rear?
	Sure glad for the racing topic on Alfa Digest.  Beat heck out of 
radios, air conditioners, sun roofs and other useless assessories.  Do you 
have cup holders welded to the roll cage in your GTV-6?  
	Thanks,
