    Typically speaking, you would want to lead the RR when dry slick and trail the RR when tacky. JMO

    Generally leading the rr tightens car the whole corner, trailing loosens it. Every driver I have worked with could feel a 1/4 inch adjustment.

    Out here in Nevada we typically have 100+ deg days in the summer with 20% or less humidity. Our tracks get so dry slick we call it "black ice" dry slick. In your part of the country it would be like driving on a hiway with freezing rain on it. Most all drivers lead the RR by at least a 1/4 in or more in the feature, and no stagger to 2 inches reverse stagger. I've gone as far as 3/8 in RR lead. As always this is. JMO

    I wouldn't lead rr. I bet your corner momentum sucks. I'd put money on it I'd pass you mid corner everytime.
    When it seems all eyes are on you when you're wearing a new pair of jeans you wonder why everyone thinks you look so darn good in them. When taking them off you notice the sticker still on the pant leg.

    I've ran many tracks across Nevada and no one knows how to keep it up so take some viagra for all your cars to help those bars. If you drop off bars you're not fast enough.
