Try SRF takeoffs....
...Spec Racer Ford.
185/60 fronts.
For a $20K SRF racecar, with few other options
besides tires to be hero driver,
those guys throw away lotta good rubber.
Rarely do they run'em past 75% tread.
Plus it seems the spec tire brand changes
every year or two...rendering new tires instantly obsolete.
Prime opportunity to score new rubber for pennies.
I ran 'em on DSP X for number of years.
One set lasted 2000 miles, most of 'em at PIR,
alot of 'em at Medford track, and some spirited canyon carving.
A-N-T Tire in Portland had lots of 'em several years ago.
Garth or Fred had lower prices than Chris.
RR compound, so getting 'em hot enough
to work on cone courses was sometimes a challenge.
Last 25% of rubber was only good for PIR.
Still better than Stahlflex, CompTA,
or Yoko 001 we used to run in the '70s-early '80s.
Which, as I recall, still gripped enough
for Datsun 1200 to wind up on 2 wheels.
Forgot if it was left 2 or right 2...
