Money No Object - Which Race Tire?

[Feffman]

Hi All:

 

Pretty self explanatory. If money were not an issue, which track tire would you run?

 

BF Goodrich gForce R-1

Hankook Z214

Hoosier R6

Kuhmo V700

Kuhmo V710

Michelin Pilot Sport Cup

Nitto NT01

Pirelli P-Zero Corsa

Toyo Proxes RA-1

Toyo Proxes R888

Yokohama A048

 

Inquiring mind wants to know! Any other choices?

Classing is typically still a concern, even if money isn't

If money is an object, why spend more than you have to? Why not get some of that money back? Check out the Hankook contingency program for NASA, especially for the Nationals!!

Hoosier DOT's.

 

They lasts a good while too.

GRM is in the middle of a test between all those brands, supposedly coming out in the next issue as I've been told....

I just bought a set of these but I can't give feedback until after next weekend at VIR.

If money were no issues I'd call up Goodyear, Michelin, Bridgestone, etc and have them make something specifically for my car/track, much like F1 and NASCAR does.

Don't you have somebody to sue instead of harassing my gramma. ??!

Beyond the corrections pointed out....this is by far the best answer to this question by literal interpretation.

 

Nice job Chad.

 

OK, close thread.
