The problem is that the first heat cycle is by far the best, so well heeled
spec racers are changing them every run.

Henry, I don't know what the problem with the 048s is as it relates to the
spec racers, but look at these comments.
http://www.scca.org/garage/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1490&get=last
and
http://www.specracer.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1633
It looks as if SCCA has decided there's a problem with the 048s and is
working to correct whatever it is. In the second discussion the 048 is
described as a great 1 session tire. It's also $179 at Tire Rack and needs
to be shaved on top of that. We need lots more information before we try to
get that one approved. Be careful what we ask for, we might just get it.

Continuing the never ending tire thread...
Does anyone have any track experience on the Yokohama AO48? This appears to
be the only radial competition tire in our 205/60X15 size.
Thanks in advance.
