MX, Supra, SPT, ASX, and whatever ones are on the gf's Mini right now (I think a run-flat version of the ASXs.) have all been wonderful tires.
My car had Kuhmo ASX's when I bought and it still had a good amount of tred left. They lasted me about 15k before I replaced them with a set of Falken Ziex.

I have mixed feelings about the Kuhmo's. They were crappy in the snow, mainly due to medium tread that was left and bad in the rain.....I blame them for the little accident I had with a stupid fence that got in my way Jake, I think you know what I'm talkin about.

Also, we put the same tire on the Type S last october and the tread seems to be wearing quite quickly with only about 6-8k miles. They're a newer model than what I had on the Evo though.

I hope my Ziex do well in the snow as I plan to use these as my winter set if I ever get wheels.

Our friend Jake(UT_EVO) asked me to let you EVO guys know about this, because as he put it "They need to get out to the track." So, here goes...

Registration for the June 26th Friday Night Laps event in now open!

June 26th, Friday Night Laps

The Friday Night Laps events are new to the Lap Battle series for 2009. They are TIMED, and should be used to hone driver's skill and help recruit new competitors to Lap Battle. There will be a few select driving instructors available to either ride along and give pointers or to drive your car while you ride shotgun to show you how it is done. We'll also have an instructor out there to give people FREE ride alongs. So if you know anyone that wants to see what it's like racing around MMP let them know!

As always, passengers are NOT allowed, but spectator entry to the track will be free!

We are dropping the entry fee as low as possible, down to $125! For that drivers will get 4 sessions on track, each session lasting at least 20 minutes. Registration closes at 5:30 pm and the first session will start at 6:00 pm and go to about 9:00pm. If you can't make it out by 5:30, email me and we can make arrangements.
