I can say I have no clue what the ideal situation is with the tires, RR's vs RA1. After Hallett I would have promised I would never buy RR's again. Now after TWS, like Tyler said I thought the RR's felt great!!
At Hallett on near new RR's I was about 3/4 of a second off my times from the last 4 years there. At TWS, my best lap was over 1 second faster than I have ever gone going CCW. I have no clue how there can be this big a difference in feel. If you take out the wet sessions, my RR's now have 13 heat cycles on them. I'm going to run them at ECR and compare to the last few years lap times at ECR.
I did order 1 RR to use some Toyo Bucks from Hallett. The wear on the RR is better than the RA1 IMO. I have no clue if the new surface at Hallett hates RR's or if something else crazy is going on. Heck, I might run RA1's at Hallett and RR's at every other track.
