Dave,

I had the 002's Race/Stree tires on my ZX10 at the track day when we met up.

They're a phukn great tire mate, warm up real quick and stick like glue, you'll get loads of cycles and you dont really need warmers for them.

I did 2 trackdays and 4000km of hard riding and i loved them, i just changed mine to a set of Corsa III's because they were out of stock of the 002 :(

As for rain, well i did ride many times on the rain on the road, but on the track i would be a little tentative as the edges are pretty much slicks :)

Cheers SG. Did you have the race spec ones or the street spec ones - two very different tyres? If you're ever after Bridgestones you should speak to Craig White at White's Racing Products on 0413 461 353. He's never out of stock, and supplies the race spec tyres (if you buy them from a store, the store has bought them from him). Hopefully we'll see you at EC on the 15th.

I had the ones that have Race/Street written on the edges and you cannot choose compounds, so i guess they're the street ones.
Yeah i've spoken to Craig.. Top Bloke :)

Yeah hopefully i'll make it to the Dec 15th track day, i need to survive Philip Island on the 19th Nov first :)

G'day Dave

I have the race compound 002's on the ZX7RR got them second hand from MadKaw
they have done 2 ridedays & were going good ( at my pace ) with no tyre warmers.
I think they will easly do the next rideday on the 15th.
