The control tyre for the race was an ING MS35 with ING blue inserts and ING white rims.

They seemed to work very well and last quite well.

The ambient temperature in the pits was around 32-35 degrees C for the 4 days.

For those temperatures I would probably be running Sorex 36's maybe 40's.

what was the hand out tires at the race? how are they compared to 28r sorex tires. my friend gave me 28 r sorex tires for xmas and im abit worried that it is not the right tire for our tracks. we race on concrete (cement) tracks and we usually use 40r tires. im curious what the handout tire were because ambient temps in thailand is very similar to ours here in the phiulippines. maybe a couple of degress different though.

coolio: i'm one of the Filipino guys who raced there and the temp in Thailand are pretty close, so as the humidity, in SG where we are based temps are similar but more humid, here we use 36's in the morning and 40's from late morning till evening. Dunno why but 40's works best before the sun goes down. We only use 28s, after the rain, when tracks still damp.
