I purchased the A3S03 Hoosiers last March. I ran about 12 events on them. I always drive them to the AX, but it's only 3-4 miles away. They are always stored in a dark unheated/cooled space.
Anyway, the tires just seem dead. Don't have their ol' get up and hold... Since they never get really hot at an AX, like they would at a track, I would think the lack of "heat cycling" would keep them lively until they're corded. Well, actually I just noticed that one has a dime size cord patch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Are they gone? Am I in denial?(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

After seeing the picture of JP's car, I don't think I will believe you AX guys when you say your tires don't really get very hot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
I think you're in denial. But I really have no AX experience. I just know you can't tell when a Hoosier is done by looking at it unless you flat spotted it. Personally, I don't like driving my car with Hoosiers just the two blocks from my garage to the trailer and I don't go over 25 mph. |
