Brilliant New ZZR Boosts Avon’s Trackday Line-Up
With the trackday market burgeoning, Cooper-Avon has added an important new product to its road-legal circuit tyre range, the ZZR. It takes its place on the grid next to the ACB10 and CR500, race-bred tyres that have already made Avon the popular choice amongst enthusiast Caterham owners.
Available in 15-, 16-, 17- and 18-inch sizes, the ZZR is the ultimate trackday tyre. Essentially a grooved slick, it’s a genuine road-legal race tyre. Its tread compound isn’t merely based on a racing compound, it’s the very same compound Avon uses for its Group N saloon racing tyre. With levels of grip that are simply extraordinary, its super-stiff race-spec carcass provides extremely fast steering response.
At the same time, though, the ZZR is very predictable and ‘friendly’ on the limit, characteristics that any trackday driver, expert or novice, will appreciate. In terms of trackday upgrades, a set of ZZRs represents the easiest and most effective modification that any driver could make to his or her car.
