Some Excerpts:
I decided to step away from the 'spec' tire for my SPBOX as I simply wanted to go faster! So, I went from running R888 to Hoosier R6.
To say I loved the Hoosiers would be an understatement. I found them to be very predictable with more precise feedback than my R888s. I even liked them in light rain.
I was able to shave 4-5 secs off at LCMT on the Hoosiers (1:57s) and 3 secs off at Calabogie (2:27). I love the grip on the R6s and the way they communicate to me.
If the R6's blow your mind do your self a favor and dabble in Hoosier's Non-DOT racing slick !!! You'll see stars and your friends won't be able to see you cause you'll be in the spirit world.
On the boxster platform I moved from r6's to Hoosier slicks and found 2.5 seconds at Sebring, to a new personal best of 2:22.
This is the reason we need to have the points for tires match their potential gains in speed. The difference between the 80-100 R tires, 30-40 R tires and slicks is significant and the points should reflect it for the 2012 rules.
