The edge of the track will quickly glaze foam tires
One needs the correct compounds and a good line to make it 8m under control

There is no setup to correct a poor tire choice
Hi Dave,
The interesting thing is, that we had no problems on the last race day with temps way above 100. But some really fast guys in 17.5 had a hand full, finding the right tire diameter to tackle the same problem. They ran the green/blue combination.
But yesterday the problem came back big time.
We going to try the Ultys anyway. But I'd like to rule out any other thing I've overlooked before that.
Thank you
