When you put it that way, Jeff, you are saying it is costing us about $66 
per session for tires!  I have not bothered counting heat cycles, that 
would probably really depress me.

I am trying the less camber approach to even out the wear on the fronts, 
hopefully that will get me past the 2 to 3 weekends I have been getting.

The addition to the house project is sort of back on track, so I'm going to 
join Russ Moore and Donny Sopp at Mosport this weekend for a VARAC/CASC 
weekend. My tires have the better part of the VDCA April event at VIR and 
the Mitty (including test day) on them. We'll see how they hold up.
