CART PR - Fast times achieved with RAIN tyres!

3 posts by 3 people · 06 Nov 1997 - 08 Nov 1997

Some of you will have seen some very fast times being achieved at Laguna 1:03.32 has been achieved using RAIN tyres - I had a go last night and quickly got in to the 1:05s with rain tyres on - the time of 1:03 is STILL 2.5 seconds faster than me - it IS a good time. Just don't be depressed if you are running 1:08s with soft tyres! I guess these would not last long in race conditions - but even so rain tyres should not make for qualifying tyres!
