Hi Everyone,

Since the UK Dunlop factory closed I have had to switch to Dunlops that are made in the Japanese factory. They are designed for a F3 series there and are a very hard compound. They are definitely slower; but up to now they have lasted a whole season and given good performance.

The compound has now changed and it is MUCH harder, and they only do this one control tire. I's 20km/h down on mechanical grip corners on this new set, compared to my last new set (I'll post a data replay, it's interesting to watch). That's not going to work!

What are you guys racing SR3's using for tires please?

Thank
Richard

Avons are a bit of problem here in NZ; they are effectively unavailable. Will check availability of the Pirellis.

Thanks!
