replaced
their Comp T/A's with G-Force T/A's, and there are three different styles.
The
T/A KD is a true street tire, with real tread that is optimized for dry
conditions, the T/A R1 is the replacement for the Comp T/A R1. This is the
DOT
legal competition only tire that is outlawed by some vintage organizations
(and
after 10 laps is a slick). The third tire is the G-Force T/A KWD which is an
all
weather high performance street tire.

I know what I mean...doesn't everyone else have ESP? <g>
These tires are indeed the above mentioned KD tires, with real tread not the
imaginary stuff on the race tires !
I have put them on my grocery getter not a race car (although if I could get
the Duke to handle as well as this street car I'll be happy). The ride in
question has all the phat additions to the suspension and more than a few to
the motor, so is capable of "testing" these tires to their limit.
Out of control? Why no officer...why do you ask?
