Both of your comments Team & MM, got me interested to read what others are saying about the worthiness of the tires, and esp on track. I looked and honestly couldn't find bad things said (maybe Team you can pitch in and find someting to balance this out lol)...

...but to those who are looking, but haven't decided on a new tire...these initial review shed some light on the performance....and certainly I'm now more than before looking forward to doing some personal testing of my own

European Car...has some construction detail and a little commentary...

=====
TrackHQ.com ...mainly a Star Spec comparison... one other interesting comment in the thread...

"We ended up (on Streets of Willow) with 34-36psi hot on the S2000 and managed to reset the street tire lap record at 1:25.754. That may also be the street tire record for all cars."
