Tire testing

[Panteracer]

Yes the Hoosiers are the best for tracking although not all the sizes are
available... running a Hankook SCCA spec tire on the front that is also
a dot road race tire.. it is a shorter tire which the Pantera likes out front
It works better than anything else I have had there but that might also
be because the front end rides lower and works better

Bridgestones are supposed to be the best in 200 rated tires but
they still do not make a tire larger than 275.... several of the local
guys just run the 275s all the way around since it is such a good tire

Rival S tires are supposed to be a close second... Been waiting on
pulling the trigger on them but wonder if Bridgestone will make a larger tire

Tire manufacturers are still playing with this new 200 thing so each
year there are some new players etc... time will tell

Tough thing is getting your size and then when they make it they
are on back order.. sometimes for ever

Like I said these 200 tires are a lot better than I ever thought they would
ever be... it was a good test to see how a real tire worked vs this 200 thing
