I'd love to see a GT3 with giant "Powered by VTEC" stickers on it's flanks.

Just be careful if you're a student athlete, my son went through it.

I put on pilot super sports from October to March due to rainy weather in the Northwest. It is an excellent tire for street driving. I took the GT3 on the track with super sports in October and last week when it was rainy. Put your sport cup 2s on during track season if that's what you do. Mine are going back on in March.

I think you missed the point of this thread. It was a troll.

So pilot super sports it is. Is it a bad idea to have super sports in the rear but keep sport cup 2's in the front?
