Sorry FYI I meant 003s. I was switching from the 090s to the 003s ;-)
I had to stiff up the front and rear preload. Note: this may be only
because I needed to anyway, but I found that when I went out on the
003s I was sliding around at the same pace that the 090s were stable.
Increasing the preload on both sides made the tires grip better and I
dropped my time significantly.
