Yep, I'm a big fan of the USGT tires - one of the main reasons I run the class. When I decided to get back into on-road, I decided against 17.5 TC when I saw all the different tire sets the drivers bring with them to a race. In USGT I typically bring 2 sets, an older set to practice on, and a newer set to race on.
