Thad Garner Yes you are correct and I have corrected that DNFs results to 0. Wow, I totally forgot to check the 15minutes run...but yikes race 12s a throw out on the regular rc points.

MikeR I too would like to see a curiosity report for tire choices for All of the Amain drivers to be reported in tech after each Amain. But for the fastest lap I ran all red exoteks the entire event. Yes that gave me some wild oversteer which was especially hard to control in the last 5 minutes of each race. If you look closely at my aeropackage for Revelation I was running maximum rear downforce and lowest front downforce to combat the oversteer. Looking back, I did run the yellow fronts and red rears and I found that to be a great combo when the sun was out during practice sessions. But I was betting on cloud cover for the races, which turned out to be very dynamic and the weather was mostly 61F. I found all reds to work a charm at rev with temps from 50F to 65F with no sun and cloud cover.


However, If the raceday temps were 75F or higher with lots of sun, I would have definately run the Hudy/Gravity RC which are a much harder tire compound to the exoteks. It would be great if there was a harder rear compound for the exotek tires. In the weeks prior to the raceday, I trialled the Yellow Exotek and Red Exotek with temps higher than 75F and they simply did not work at Revelation.
