Tyre wear in clay
What's the tyre wear like on clay(2wd)? I'm trying to determine how many tyres I need for this weekends invernational at RHR.

Depends how much practice you do on Friday, last year I used 3 sets.

When I ran at oople I ran the rear tyres for 3 runs in one direction and then span them round and ran them for another 3 runs in the other direction.
If you look at the rear tyres you will see the wear is only on the front edge of the block. The tyres generally will be pants the first run and will start to get better grip by 3rd run on them as wear in. Hope I made sense :-)

Just as Ian says, it depends how much practice you want to do on friday, but;
Regarding rears - 2wd and front/rear 4wd: If you want to get the best result you can then perhaps a set per day, and if you have any old ones use them for practice on friday, this is what i'll do, then a set for sat and a set for sun. 2wd fronts last for several meetings so only one set of those required. |

Yes we've tried suburbs, 2wd holeshot fronts and ribs.
Ribs are the best allround tyre. Suburbs might be fractionally better on any rougher areas. |

I'll be running them this time, try back to back in practice, then decide. the scrubs had no wear after the last proline challange.
