Default What goes into the Dunlop tire testing at Sebring

I just read this and thought it was interesting to hear what Dunlop was doing to test tires ahead of the 2017 race season. Sounds like we might have a great tire war building!

I was at Sebring last weekend and there was a Dunlop truck full of tires. I was wondering why and now I know.

They came with over 1000 prototype tires. When I have three sets of stickers I think I'm prepared!
