Hey, let's hear some more about tire aging.
the rubber gets harder when it ages.
softer rubber = more grip
harder rubber = less grip
exposure to sun or heat does the same.
racing tires are even more vulnerable because they're very soft to begin with.
so, if they have been sitting for a while, they're probably toast.
