I'm giving away a free track entry. First one to respond and post a picture of the car they're going to track gets it.

Don't take it unless you're actually going to show please.

The entry will be at Buttonwillow Raceway in California. You're responsible for getting yourself there and all other expenses; I'm only covering the registration.

Car, helmet, probably good to bring tools, maybe a quart of oil, brake fluid, etc.

What group? Beginner? Intermediate? Advanced?

The V12 K110s aren't a bad tire, per se, but I wasn't overly thrilled with them in performance driving situations. Expect lots of noise, lots of squish and squirm, and marginal feedback. 38-40 cold psi is probably best to help make up for what the sidewalls lack.

V12's have a lot of grip, but don't tolerate any sort of trail braking or slip angle. They can put down some eye popping lap times if you drive around their limitations...

I've done a 1:23 at SoWS in an M3 with just V12s and an exhaust (no gains).

They don't tolerate Evos, is what you're saying. laugh2.gif

They do provide a lot of grip before they reach their limits though, I cut my fastest street tire 60' on them.
