Well NJMP Thunderbolt is greasy the hotter it gets.
I took Vang out for a ride the last session of the day.
Wanna go for a ride?

The more honest question is how much you are willing to spend for each incrementally quicker tire and how often you track.

The G3's are a great value. The G3R's are a great value but wear out twice (+/-) as fast, and so on. I only run on G3R's, Hoosiers, or slicks now with my SS 1LE (and have for a long time).

You can send a kid to a nice college for what you can burn through annually on Purple Crack (Hoosiers) or similar if you track a bunch and run aggressive pace like guys like Nicky and I do. I don't mean that last bit bragging, just I know (slow) guys that track, let's say, on G3R's, and they brag about getting a bazillion sessions out of them. If I drove at the pace they do, I'd get a bazillion sessions out of mine, too.

Philosophically speaking (because it's Friday), if they get the same kicks out of their snail pace, they may be better off in the end... which doesn't detract anything from the value of your speed and abilities, of course I wish I wasn't such a chicken as a performance car driver (working on it).

haha yea the g3s are tanks this is my 2nd set in less than a year but once i switch to 19s gonna try out some 3rs since they are cheaper than the 20s version and i have been to track 5 times so far this year so about every month or so cept in the summer time and been doing some hpde/time attack and there are some fast ass guys!

You'll love the G3R's and will get addicted right away!

all the grip!! lol i have just been told and seen from experience that they take a few laps to warm up anything else to be worried about?

[NickyRacerBoy]

When I spoon on a set of "stickers" especially A7 its like nothing else!
I can dive so deep and put the front "axle"
Anywhere I want to!

Make sure U use the gauge to read the tire temp - and do NOT push till it says “warm” - generally 3 laps for me. Before that they will give without warning and bite u…

Yet another great video and doggone it that sound makes me sick. I only do about 1 track day a year, so it was like starting over when I went to CMP this year instead of RRR, where I always go. I was on my cheap Bridgestone S007A's too, so no where near as confident as my OEM Goodyears, but great on the street.

Do what you can do!
My recommendations are seat time and develop a trust between you and your car!!!
