spirited miles
I HAVE USED THESE LIST 1a TYRES FOR YEARS IN PRODUCTION SALOON CAR RACING,SPRINTS AND HILLCLIMB,THEY ARE PROGRESSIVE AND CONFIDENT IN THE DRY WITH MOST MAKES OF CARS I DRIVE AT EVENTS.
ON THE VAUXHALL ASTRA GSi WITH 270BHP THEY WHERE SUPERB IN THE WET AND I COULD TROUNCE THE OPPOSITION.
ON MY HONDA INTEGRA R DC5 THEY ARE PROGRESSIVE IN THE DRY,AND I CAN COMMIT MY RACE CAR TO MOST ANGLES AT SPEEDS UP TO 150MPH,BUT IN THE WET OR ON A COLD DAY,ON THE LIMIT THEY WOULD BREAK AWAY,RESULTING IN SEVERAL 130MPH CONTACTS WITH THE TYRE WALLS AT AVON RISE,CASTLE COMBE AND HAMILTONS AT SNETTERTON.
AT GOODWOOD IN THE RAIN THESE TYRES ON THE HONDA ARE QUESTIONABLE,USUALLY I OBLITERATE THE COMPETITION BUT I HAD A JOB STAYING ON THE CIRCUIT AT ANY HIGH SPEEDS,I STILL WON BUT IT WAS HARDER WORK THAN SOME OF THE OTHER MAKES OF LIST 1a TYRES THAT HAVE JUST COME ON THE MARKET.
SO FROM NOW I WILL NOT USE THEM ON THE INTEGRA.I HAVE FOUND ANOTHER LIST 1a TYRE WHICH I WILL REPORT ON AFTER A FEW EVENTS,AND ANYWAY I DONT WANT THE OTHER COMPETITORS TO KNOW JUST YET WHAT TYRES I AM TO USE FOR THE SEASON.
