continental road racing spec tire... They were the spec tire for the tuner shootout back in april. These were insane speed's, never used at the shootout, but purchased them from todd mounted on a set of used wheels.

They're similar to hoosier r6 and seemed to take temp pretty well....this was my first event on them. Gonna run these at smmp on the 25th

mainly made for straight pieces. The thinner stuff is more bendable. 2 and 3mm thick.
the 6 and 10mm are very rigid.
