The humidity was non existant 7% and it was 88*f and 108 on the track and they did me proud. I am sure with some practice I could get another .2 out of them.
That's my biggest priority with my next set of tires, is the "hook" off the line. As for cornering grip, etc... I simply haven't had the time to schedule outings to a proper road course. On the street, it's hard to reach the handling limits without hitting felonious speeds or putting someone else in danger... neither of which I want to do.
This means that I can settle for "great" in the corners as opposed to "the absolute best". The difference between the two tires, at the speeds I'll be hitting, will be negligible. Also, no Dragon for me this year so my only real "test" of the tires for some time will be the launch.
So, the INVO is a clear choice at this point.
