That was also in the soft compound. You should really give them a shot. We also have lugs which look like crimefighters, and or the W's which is a hybrid of crimefighters and bowties.
I don't know that I would describe them like he did (Lugs have a higher pin count than most tires, and the carcass is flatter than a bowtie, but not as flat as a crimefighter,) but I did put 4 races on a set before they showed much wear. Traction is decent too. I've seen guys clip the outer and inner row of pins like they do with Crimefighters, they say it works well, but I haven't tried it.
