tire selection

[Protein Filled]

Depending on the track, some of my teammates use the H2 tire a lot more than the S2 or M2. Yeah, the nomenclature of the tire definitely is odd.

IE, at Mid-America, the S2's were cold tearing badly, the M2 was too hard and not getting grip, but the H2 was hooking up well and was not tearing.

Are any of the AMA Pro teams planning on racing on the H2 instead of the S2?

The AMA Teams are using the S2 series for the most part. They have version's of the S2 that is alot like the H2 as far as the compound (med/soft) but it is in an S2 designated tire.

One of my most popular combinations I sell is the S2 front with the H2 rear. Just for the record at Gateway International and Mid America Motorplex in 2002 both had the track record broken by Jeff Kramer on a GSXR 750 using the S2/H2 combo.
