May 26, 2007 - I got an email from Ander Tenno about tire selection.
He's tried both the R888 and the RA-1 on his car in the past, and here's what he has to say:
The short summary is this: the RA-1 gives up very little grip in optimal circumstances (~20-25 C sunny weather with heat in the tires) to the R888 while being significantly better in the wet and when the tires are cold. If the RA-1 was still available in Europe, I’d be still using those.
It certainly sounds as if the RA-1 would be the better choice for the Targa! Thanks so much for the feedback, Ander!
