Yeah, but do do the pros. I picked up 1 tenth and 2 mph just switching from old mt's to Hoosier. Hoosiers are 9lbs lighter a piece. But only 7 lbs lighter than pro's.

weather might have changed a little, but otherwise it was exactly the same. Same track and all. This was back when my 302 was still in car.
