To shave or not to shave?  That is the question.

With the harder "road race" compound tires such as Kumho and Toyo, is
shaving necessary or even beneficial for performance and tire life in
autocrossing.

I know that the R1s could suffer from EGOD if they weren't shaved but that
problem sorta solved itself through attrition.

See you on course.

Rockin' and rollin' in overdrive
My heart's beating like a jackhammer
It's the midnight ride for the gear jammer
