Anyone run the Sport Cups for autoX? I'm trying to decide which tires I'm going to run next season. I've been running Victoracers and am considering a change next year. Right now I'm leaning towards Hoosier autocrossers but if the Cups give similar performance and last longer (Hoosiers go away pretty quick) I'll give them a try.

Thoughts?

Also, anyone remember which issue of Pano has the tire tests? I scanned the article when I got the issue but hadn't decided to switch tires yet so I didn't study it as well as I should have.

You can compensate for such differences by experimenting with the tire pressures. Here's some tire pressure FAQ from Michelin:

I tried them first tie this past weekend on local AutoX club's speedtrial (first, one warm up lap, then three timed laps) and I agree with Kim, they take time to warm up & grip ain't so good when they're cold.

Kim,

How about using F1 type tyre warmers when you're autocrossing? You'd look very cool & that would be another 'addition' to your warehouse!
