With the smaller tires (shorter all-round gear ratio), do you have an extra shift compared to last year? That could be 1/2 a second right there...

Blown rear shocks could also compound the issue, as the weight transfer to the rear could be taking traction away from the front. Are you noticing any 'squat' in the rear?

Replace shocks = less weight transfer = more traction on the fronts :)
