Is the learning curve worth it with the Firestone 500's i'm running ,or should I just suck it up and purchase the RE-71R"s?

Thanks, I actually had FTD (other than Mike's runs). Richard's best was 90.xx something, so not sure where they ended up showing the time for him; he and I talked all day about what he could work on. I think he was perhaps one that Mike drove his car perhaps (or timing issue; in one of my final runs I go timed at 75 something which was clearly in error).
I think the 500s should be fine for learning. If you really want to zoom upward and therefore practice good habits, taking an Evolution autocross school (Phase 1 and Phase 2) is the way to go. Fantastic schools. I think there is one weekend with both coming up this spring in Bristol TN.
