nt01 vs yokohama ad08
you guys im here trying to get some reviews and opinions on these two tires i am looking for a set of tires for tracking.
at the moment i am tracking with nt05 and they are ok but they tend to give up after a couple of hot laps.

Any of the rcompounds would be the best on the track. R888 the ad048 etc. I have t personally run these. You may try looking the the r&c forum and see what they are running. If you step up to a Hoosier you should trailer it to the track since they are not made for the street at all.
