Jason Ertrachter ran 16.44's on SJR's / 16.22's on Jacco's / 15.92's on Solaris's H's

Chris Sitz's ran 16.5's on RP's / 16.2's on Solaris H's

Driver X ran 16.06's on RP's / 15.76's on Solaris H's

The Fastest Time of the Day was ran on Solaris H's

The TQ + Win were also taken on Solaris H's

Many others ran the Solaris tires as well and all had good results as far as I know.
That's great Q! Thanks for the feedback.

Solaris H, M, and S, tires are meant to be SPEC tires, low cost, overall good grip, and, longevity. They were not meant to compete against the high end tires such as Sorex and Sweep EXP.

If Jason's going faster on Solaris tires compared to Sorex then his car isn't setup properly! LOL
