Who says you can't use summer tires in the winter!!!
The April 7, 2007 NNJR's Pocono event was held in the sub 32 degree weather.
Even race tires are ok in that kind of temp.

The Hankook DOT-R's are more of an autocross compound designed to heat up quickly. Definitely worked to your advantage. I was at Pocono this weeked and friday was a high of about 32. I ran Hoosier A6's and they worked great. Heated up to full stick in about two laps and never got greasy. I don't think that would work if it were 90 degrees out. I know the guys on MPSCs were not having much fun.

Sorry, I was so busy getting the car ready this last few weeks I did not get a chance to pull apart my harness and look. I will try to get it posted this week.
