I ran my HB Megabites (pink) for the first time last night and they hooked up really well and seemed to have very good lateral traction.

My track is normally loose and dusty but it rained very lightly before the races started so the conditions were absolutely perfect.

The tires definitely handled better than my M2 Calibers........but I am comparing an M2 compound to pink which is HB's softest, so kinda an unfair comparison.
