Shift at 6500 rpm, makes a huge difference. Do 1 or 2 laps and the back off. Don't use the xp10 unless you are experienced or have slicks. They. Bite so hard that it flips out the abs and you hit ice mode. They do have superior braking power than the 8

So, 1 or 2 laps full revs, then back off to 6500; or shift at 6500 for 1 or 2 laps then back off from 6500?

I want to walk the line between cooking the pads and causing ice mode. Mayhaps XP8/AX6 is a better combo for the RE050 tires?
