Where does one buy these English go fast tires :uh oh:
Also, I want to make the trek to either Mid-Ohio or MAM this year, both NASA events. Which would you recommend?
Is it April yet!!!

I've had good luck with the Avons also. At the price on those Dunlop "Go Fast" tires I'd have to take out a Cobra Improvement loan.
TroyV said:My feeling is that after extensive reading of the available info, for my purpose, the Avon is the proper choice for me. I firmly believe it is the "tweener" I've been looking for. A little bit harder than the 710 for more temp resistance, a little bit softer than an RA-1/555RII/NT-01 for more cold bite.
Though I really like the over all grip of 710's, the turn in was always really mushy to me compared to say....Victoracers. After reading all the reviews, I gather that the Avon has sharper turn in as it has a stiffer wall....not too unlike the victo, but is more like the 710 in the over all grip department.
I suppose I'm going to find out come spring..
TroyV said:Tirerack shows the treadware rating of the 710 at 30 and the Avon at 40. Is that not an indication of the stickiness?
TroyV said:Yes, I fully understand. So those numbers above specify that the Avon is harder....correct?
NJ2000R said:identical cars, but mine is still 100% stock suspended....maybe the avons and hoosiers with more adhesion than the 710 work better with the stock suspension and make up for its shortcomings....or perhaps better said, its non-adjustability.... :shrug:
