Post by: PolishPete on April 17, 2006, 06:55:02 PM
Hello all...Tshort road on these for a few races, then I bought the bike and used them for approximately 20 easy laps at Grattan...is this thread good enough for Learning Curves at Road America??  Looks like 3 total sessions out on the track.  Hopefull you can tell.  Thanks for all the answers in advance!!

With the relatively few laps you'll be putting in, and the pace of the LCR sessions, I don't think you'd have a problem.

Cut off the tread with a bread knife and use shoe polish to fill in the dry rot cracks! ;D ;D ;D ;D

The better question is how many heat cycles they have in them.

They look fine!

Run em!

Just don't crash, LC is not a race, it's to get your license.

Beside Rick and Brian get really pissed off when someone crashes in there class. ;)
