Looks and sounds good. Let’s hope they have them in sizes that work for us.

It would be a tough day in the rain.

It would be a tough day in the rain.

That's for sure.

I'm sure DGatzby knows all about hustling an overweight, (with poor weight distribution), over-powered, under-tired beast around in the rain.

Use the OEM tires you bring along IF you want to drive in the wet. Or sit in the pits and look and talk smart. Think traction is tricky on a good day??

No shit they don’t work in the rain. Nothing but a “street” tire will if you are remotely interested in driving in the wet on a closed course. During my three days of SCCA certification it rained two. Spin a Ford Spec into the grass a few times. It is ok, but I’ll wait for a dry track unless you may waste a whole weekend fee.
