There is a reason good R compounds such as A7/R7/R1/R1S are in the 12-22 point range and a A048/RA1/Pilot Cup are +6. The New street tires destroy the old r compounds. So no, no one is getting screwed, the tires are faster
Do people have times to prove this? If they are then I agree they should be just as high in points.
You aren't coming off as a dick, I just want to see how they proved this haha. I can agree if they are faster than they should have higher points.
Yes, looks like NASA is starting to get more stringent on their rules!
Simple as looking to the autoxers. The RE71R and Rival S are worlds above the old tires. There are lots of tests to prove how fast they are. Even more testing has been done in the past year since stock classes moved to "street" and uses 200 treadwear tires. There is a reason nobody autoxes on pilot cups, and everyone uses the "bridgestones" (bfg/bridgestone).
