and im not surprised the RE71R is faster than the RS3. The better benchmark is against the Dunlop ZII. I may be using the ZII's now for test and tuning events and buying a set of RE71Rs solely for national events.
due to the fact that I have new ZIIs already and I planned on two sets of tires this season anyway. not sure we need the "fastest" tire for some of the local events. Would want the fastest for nationals and those tires to be in their prime for the Solo Finale. waiting on some testing results comparing the ZII versus the RE71s. its probably about a half second difference at Nationals.

Let me put it this way...
Heikotter's in Peter's old car. We're all boned this year no matter how you look at it.
Buy decent tires this year, build the car, and let the chips fall where they may for the 2016 season.
I presume that RS3's, Rivals, XS's and all the other legit street tires live life on street class cars?
And, from what we are seeing thus far, the legit street tires live much longer lives on the same cars.
i have no further input to this conversation. 2015 rules are in effect. Just follow the rules. Hell i dont want to have to redrop my diff to remove the nismo cover but hey its considered not legal.
