So speaking with Jeff K last night we were talking about tires. I mentioned what my plans were and talked a little about contigencies. I asked what his thought were on tires for prepared classes. This is direct from him
In my experience, the Goodyear is the fastest tire out there. The Avon is second and Hoosier is third. I use to be a contract driver with Hoosier but after doing much testing I found Goodyear to be better and willing to do what it takes to change. So for my class I will be going with Goodyear. What are your thoughts on this? |

I'm running a flipped 5th gear that gives a ratio of 1.408 for 3rd gear and a speed of about 68 mph at 7K.
