I emailed BSR Racing to ask about which capped tires to use for pan car racing on asphalt, and he emailed back that they aren't meant for asphalt, but for large banked outdoor oval tracks. He said if you really want to try them, to try the Pro Net red or pink capped tires.

He also said that foam tires will work better on asphalt. We race at a Kmart parking lot, and they won't allow us to use sugar water or any type of track prep additive; so all we can do is sweep it as best we can. The surface is at least 15 years old and is no longer black, but more a grayish color. Grip is so-so at best. Trying to figure out which tires to use myself.
