Called Hoosier and disccussed new compound with them. They say better than old Wets for wet but still not suitable for intermediate conditions. Said for intermediate (wet/dry, occasional drizzle ) A6 hand grooved by purchaser is their best offerring. Had hoped they would be suitable for intermediate conditions...
The Wets are awesome in the wet , but rubber disappears quickly if it starts drying on you.

I just ran the H2O's yesterday for the Enduro & Qualy at Mid Ohio. They were really amazing. Qualy was drying conditions and even with a semi dry line they did not blister despite getting fairly hot. During the Enduro they handled amazingly but it was wet the entire time.
