I'm sure our resident excuse master, Mr. Ochi will concur, the best thing
about not running the fastest tire is the fact that you always have an
excuse in your back pocket.

I have had several sets of Kumho V700s...for both track events
and autox events. One thing about the Kumhos is that they last
pretty long. They are not the fastest R compound tire out there
but you might be able to stretch them the entire season if
you are lucky.
Email me directly if you want more details.
I get mine at Tirerack (eddie@tirerack.com)
