Thanks! It is further down my list due to the cost ($3,500 - $4,000). I am planning on getting a set of Apex 19" x 10" EC-7 in Satin Bronze with Max Summer Performance Tires (not sure which one yet) and run those from my 1st event (March / April) to my last event (~October) and switch to the all seasons for the winter since this is my daily driver. Also have a number of other suspension, brake, and aero upgrades planned. Long list, less money. Given I am a relative noob, the all-seasons tires I have (BFG G-force Comp-2 A/S plus) work surprisingly well and don't wear out too fast (they survived 2 days at VIR whereas the brakes did not). I figure another season and I will be into the Intermediate Solo category and need to step up the grip to not hold everyone else up.
