For contigency, was wondering whether
A) this program is continuing to be offered for 2020
B) what are the rules (are you allowed to switch tire brands at any point of the season incase the tires get damaged, and still be eligible if 3+ events (the majority) were run using toyos)?
C) is a toyo t1s eligible (really crappy street tire) to be used as a substitute in case your 100 treadwear tires gets damaged)?
For advice on using toyo r888r tires,
D) how many heat cycles (track temp for 20 minute durations) will a r888r last before grip falls off from competitive levels?
E) will street driving add any heat cycles ( driving as if you were sedated and not in any rush )
F) I've heard the same width runs wider on r888r compared to the hot street tires. On a 6.5, 7.5, and 9 inch wide rim, what is the widest recommended width to run for a r888r for outright speed without getting into weird non linear behavior? I'm guessing 195, 205, 235?
G) is 16, 17, or 18 inch the preferred rim size to get maximum performance out of the sidewalls or are the sidewalls stiff enough it doesnt really matter?
H) for a 3200lb car, would the straight line/grip in corners compromise be within 0.5 second per 60 sec lap between a 195 and 235 tire?
I think it is difficult to answer some of these questions but I would appreciate any feedback if available.
