Wow that one awesome looking tire!! Is that the new dunlap star spec? They look very similar to the toyo r888 I run, only these have a center band down the middle. My toyo r888 are great but they are on the noisey side and aren't going to last to long, the latter isn't so much a problem as I only put 2000-3000 miles a year on my car. I would like something quietier if theirs only a small trade off in performance.
ZII. ZI* and RS3 and proper cold psi for track use are your friend. I TT raced on the Z1* for my F car. If I set the psi too high...greasy. Set right = grip.

Well the top secret tire could simply be the BFG g-force Rival, that is being tested by a group that was invited to NOLA. I have my doubts of its autoX ability, but will wait and see... I am guessing BFG will let it be tested against the Z1, RE-11, etc... but will NOT have a set of zII or RE-11A on hand...
"Look we won the (biased) test!!!!" most modern compound vs. few year old compounds.
