    Time to put the Cups on?

    What do you guys think?

    Its been 3 sunny days in a row, my Rear Goodyear F1's are way beyond illegal, and ive got some semi used (2 trackdays) cups waiting to be put on...

    Have you guys switched over yet?

    Mine went on Tuesday :thumbs:

    But I was more than illegal on my rears too so HAD to get some new tyres anyway.

      Mine are arriving next week, I'll be getting them on over the next few weeks...

      My only concern is that although we've had some lovely sunny days this week the temperature hasn't actually risen a great deal at all so prob not Cup weather quite just yet!

              Next few weeks for me once it gets a little warmer, not going to be anywhere near the right temp currently, so see no point just yet, you probably have more grip without cups ..:whistle:

              Just gagging to get mine on... so soon :thumbs:

                I think the "michelin cup highlights" this winter were when raining the back kicking out at 85 in 3rd but t\c sorted that :bigcry: and the weirdest one downhill on a dual carriage way with a slight curve the front felt like it slide over the white line in the middle of the road then gripped again I looked at my girlfriend she looked at me and it we was like wtf was that :hahaha: :bigcry: oh not to forget getting stuck twice and wasting 30 minutes clearing snow to get it back on the drive when i made the mistake of trying to use it on when it snowed :bigcry:

                  Fpmsl! Glad I was at least on PS2's then! I couldn't even pull up a slope in the road one morning when it was icey, I had to wait until it rained to melt the ice! :bigcry: :bigcry:

                    Here they are, the rear, reckon I should get 1 more trackday out of them? Or maybe do lots of Powersliding one afternoon to finish them off....
