The Big Bend Open Road Race is only 61 days away...
Please see the website for this event. It is one of the most challenging open road races in North America. It is very challenging, but is a blast at any speed!!! BBORR (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) SSpofomocoSS |

Every event that we have come to with the 555 DRs the promoter has raised questions.
And everytime we've been allowed to run, we've shown them to be a very competent tire for a road course. I think many times promoters get lost in the tern "drag", envisioning a wrinkle wall slick. That just isn't the case. The side wall is such a low profile, that there is no "wrinkling" ... it's all rubber compound and weight. Now, if your concerns are how the tire will hold up at elevated speeds for an extended period of time, I can say I've seen Goodyear F1s chunk rubber where Nitto DRs haven't. |
