If you can buy the A050’s. You will love them. Stickier and faster than the 48’s

I am aware of the mention in the magazine but my copy has not yet arrived.  Most likely a ploy by the publisher to get VDCA to advertise in their magazine more than once a year which is what we do now.

My TR3, which I have now been racing for 30 years but which has been absent for nearly 4 years will be at Summit Point in two weeks.  Still gathering input as to what tires I should acquire to run on it.  I had a set of Speedsters a few years back but I managed to turn them to butter in less than 3 laps.  They became nearly useless.  It was like driving in the rain at that point.  Dont  know if it was driving style (a bit sideways) or just the compound itself.  I'd appreciate any advice on what direction to head.

I see they have me grouped with all of my FV buddies.  That should be quite wierd.

News flash:

I realize this is not about a Triumph vehicle, but Nutty Ole Mike Jackson is a Triumph guy at heart even if he races Volkswagens too. 

He is now famous (or most likely infamous) as he and his Shadowfax Formula Vee made the latest issue of Vintage Motorsport.  Check it out, call him soon his head is swelling as you read this and he might not be able to talk to us lowly Triumph folks for long LOL!!!!
