The tires were fantastic all weekend. Lots of grip, good audible feedback, and heat up quick even running first in the mornings (more than my R-S3's did). However, by the 5th shootout run, which were only about 3 minutes apart, they were greased. I ended up with a DNF coming out of a 180 sweeper into a slalom....front end pushed and hit the first pointer while holding the same line as previous runs.
