Here's his rubber setup for
dry
qualifying and
wet
finals at the Halifax track.
That's them, that's the tyres that Sow was using
My setup was pretty similar actually - in desperation in searching for grip, I threw away both anti-roll bars and softened the suspension right down. It did calm things down a bit and sliced three seconds off my lap times, but with the slicks I could only put partial throttle on before the car would just spin out. If I had had softer tyres it would have been better - those rain tyres which worked well were 20 hardness, wereas my not-working-so-well
slicks were 27s
Still it was fun and very demanding to keep the car on the track and I was reasonably pleased with my result - doing my best to emulate other known "nutters" who always used slicks in the rain, like Jean Alesi and Gilles Villeneuve
It was all about crowd entertainment
