MY DSM and racing (all types). Please look!!

The driver mod is really important; everyone thinks they're hot shit on the streets but when you start driving at the limit it really separates people. Take Chris Deutsch for example, I'm sure I'd be able to hang with him on the streets, but on the auto-x track forget it...he has way less power than I do but I can't even come close to touching him (riding along with him is great education though).

I will agree about the softer tires really shining at the absolute limit; Matt's tires will still grip when mine begin to let go. With that said, considering the amount of driving I do, I'm very happy I have 300 treadwear tires. You just need to weigh all the facts and figure out the one that fits your lifestyle the best. I am kind of wishing I would have done a 245 width tire on my Evo instead of 235's though; but I expect these tires to last me 3 summers so I won't be changing that any time soon.
