    True, but this class proves time and time again you don't have to have the latest and greatest hardware to win.

    Just have big balls and fresh tires.

    We can debate all day who's balls are bigger but it would be nice if we could not have a tire go to shit after 8-12 heat cycles.

    Agreed. Im going to be buying a set of 200treadwear street tires for open lapping days to save the heat cycles on the RR's. The car feels so bad on the heat cycled out ones that it's not even useful practice...

    The original RA1's were an awesome racing tire. As was said about them.. the sucked, but they sucked a really long time.
