Different tire question
Ok, I have my Kuhmo Ecsta 700s that I bought at the beginning of last year. They were great tires. They are now completely slick. Except for a bit of tread on the edge. My arch nemesis was about a second behind me, but then he bought new Avon Tech R's on an older Sentra SE-R. He was on an old set of victoracers. Now he is always just ahead of me (.1s-.3s). I can't seem to catch him. Watching him I notice that he is able to lay power down well before me in the corners. I have to wait before I can get on the throttle. BTW we are spanking the hell out of the rest of the class as well as most of the other stock classes. It's a bummer to be faster that most of the other stock classes and go home with a second place .
How much do tires change over the life? Was I just at an advantage before and now I'm not? or would a new set of tires give me more of an edge?
