Anybody used Michelins at Daytona in March? I'm running on a liter bike, I wanna make sure I will have a good tire choice for next weekend. V front and B rear should do it? Or have to use C rear. I really dont want to use a B front, my bike doesn't turn with that..... Any suggestions? I ran on Dunlops before, tires chunked in a 7 lap race. I did 1:54 on the traditional layout.

Thanks

Michelins last much longer than 7 laps.

talk to Walt, Frank and the boys with michelin when you get to daytona Antal..or call walt directly. I would try a C rear.
the a/b fronts work great for the fast, long braking area of tun 1 and the cicane. I love the v front too, but if you have an a or b font on a rim try it back to back..to see what gives you a better lap.
daytona is hard on any tire, especially on the liter bikes.
