Jeez, they've seen better days Duncan. Are they RE050? Maybe you should get a set of those Kumhos?

No they're Sport Maxx's. They've done 3 track days now and I am despirately needing camber plates to reduce the roll on the tyre wall. I'm going to call the Kumho people tomorrow, however not sure if they have the size I want (the rears weren't listed on the size I was after. Plus I don't want directional so I can swap the fronts if possible.

Hey Duncan, good job destroying these tyres! haha

Let me know if you want to get rid of them... I'm after some dodgy tyres for a soon-ish skid pan day

This was the 2nd to last session; I need to start checking my pressures more regularly as they were well up towards the end of the day. It was like driving on ice before I dropped them again.

I just noticed that my service interval went down by 4,000km's yesterday , usually I drop 1,000km's during a track day. Does this mean I was trying 4 times harder?
