next outdoor season ill get some sorex's to see how they run. but i still have alot of rubber left on the takeoffs (after 3 full racedays) you have to clean them after every round and rotate them so they last.

yes, rotating your tires will make 'em last... but at the expense of consistency. it usually takes a full run before the tires begin to hook up again after you rotate 'em. don't get me wrong, i too rotate my tires, but only after their best runs are behind 'em. at this point, i use 'em for practice or maybe for a qualifier. then, i'll use my newest set for the mains.

oh yeah, this is a tire/insert thread. here goes:

sorex 36r w/ yok firms - great hot weather combo.
sorex 32r w/ yok firms - great for current temp.
yok 206f w/ yok firms - even better for current temp, but
wears very quickly.
