I finally received the RE-71R order I placed with TireRack back in March. The tire is still not available on the TireRack's web site, instead a new Bridgestone Potenza S007A tire is listed under the extreme performance category.
Is this a replacement for the RE-71R?
How does it compare in terms of performance with the RE-71Rs?
Is TireRack going to perform a side-by-side test so we can get some idea on how well it performs in autocross?
Thanks!

From that other forum I copied a quote from a Tirerack person, which confirms what I guessed:
"Originally Posted by Jim@tirerack
So we had a meeting with Bridgestone and the S007A is going to fit in between the RE71R and the S04 Pole Position in performance. They are a replacement for the RE11 is what they are telling us. The S04 will not go away at this time and the RE71R will stay as well. They are listing the S007A in the OE AP1 sizes but I do not have any confirmed dates yet.but should be around the first of May.
If I can help let me know."
