Frayed, you'll love the Corsas. I have a friend who tracked them last event and they were terrific. Just do some research on the recommended hot tire pressures. I think they run several psi lower than Cups.

Thanks RJ, will do my best to tear them up on the 10th at TWS. You coming?

I'm about to order wheels. Was going with BBS competition wheels, but with forged Al centers rather than mag. What are you running?

Which set is better Pirelli Corso's or Pilots sports. I thought the GT3rs came with Rosso Corso's, are they better than Pilot sports? Are Rosso's different than Corso's?

Jeff - as RJ noted, was running Zero Corsas at TWS last outing with LSR PCA..and will be their again on June 10/11.

FWIW - my thoughts on the two R-compound choices from a previous post:

"Have run MPSC's and P Zero Corsas at TWS DE's.

Unfortunately, upgraded to X73 between the sets so am somewhat cautious of comparing/advising.

Suffice that both are commendable - with my present bias to the Corsas.

The preference largely driven by the Corsa's more communicative approach to the limit. Although how much this is due to the X73, I can only guess...

Also the superior wet grip of the Corsa's affords a greater "get home" element...

BTW - am running Corsa's on the fronts..and System (N6) on the rears"



Quick Reply: MPSC's rear tires (295's) are back in stock.
