God I hate these tyres....

I have done 15000 miles, 5 track days, 200 miles on the ring and a sprint and still they arent dead.





And all of that with loads of grip... Who needs track tyres when I have these little babies

Vey impressive, but i'll stick with Silverstone track tyres.... endless grip and predictable controlable slides when they're nearing the limit. not that it ever stepped out on me at snetterton...

lol - nope

That was with the instructor on board telling me to floor it and straighten up so that I was facing ther armco - back came out lovely and held it on the power leaving a nice trail of tyre smoke

Mike, those Silverstone were gripping very well - will give them a go on mine once the additional sizes come out

I hated mine the hotter they got the grippier, on an airfield day the guy hated my car because it wouldnt step out, first time it went 30-40 degrees, 2nd time less, 3rd time not at all, the evo 9 on the other hand, did the opposite, and on the 3rd go just went 180
