Tyres In the wet

[display2u]

Bruce ,as your the only one I know, who run's formula R's and also takes SO3's with him to most meetings, at what point do you fit the SO'3 when it starts raining ?
In other words at what point do the Formula R's start to break away, light drizzle ,slight downpour or really pissing down ? With the weather thats forecast for this Friday I am getting a bit worried.

When the track is wet all over, it's time to switch. The R's are great when they're hot and dry, but when they're cold and wet, they're 'interesting'. The Michelins hang on much better - but to be honest, when it's that wet, I'd rather go out in the Volvo!

Yup. The Disco looks good for at least a bit of the day... or get out those waterproofs!
