Don't track mode in 45* weather

[BBB]

Hit it hard on the on ramp tonight and when I shifted into 3rd the rear end get super loose. I almost shit my pants.

I was driving for a little while too and I would have thought I had the tires warmed up. I guess those p-zero's are really what they say they are... summer tires.

Those tires completely spun on me in 62 degree weather, slightly damp track, mid turn, .8G, Sport+ with TC on.
It was sudden, no warning. Tires were cold.

They really are summer tires. Good grip on 80 degree days though! I'm seriously considering Michelin AS3 for fall-spring and Bridgestone RE71R's for the summer now. Or PSS for all around, although they are also a summer tire.

I was in normal mode driving on summer tires at 40 degrees and rainy, downshifted to 5th and did a 360 in the middle of the freeway. Thank god nobody was there and it was 2 am..

So now you know what the linelock is for.

Dude, be careful. Here in Europe it was raining for last two weeks, temperatures around 8-14 Celsius.

I just kept driving using P-U-S-S-Y mode (Snow+Wet).

Experienced two involuntary slides with P Zeros and one time I almost hit a car in front of me because of breaking distance. Those tires are awful in wet conditions and lower temperatures, I already switched to Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 for winter.

my P zeros are nearly bald. Had a similar thing happen to me when it was about 60 to 65 Fahrenheit just punching it on the on ramp to get on the freeway just like the op. All the nanny's we're fighting though to keep the car straight, it was fun. Trying to wait until January to get new tires for the rear if I could just keep my foot off the gas I'll be ok.

53 and rain here. I've moved from track mode to sport mode until my Sumotomos come in.

Still track mode but ditched P-Zeros long time ago for Potenzas S-04 PP. Great grip on the wet. I really can't imagine driving this car in a Snow/Wet mode...

How do you like them?

I can't wait until the P-Zeros are bald so I can justify replacing them with Michelin PSS. It's going to be a lot of money but the P-Zeros are garbage.

My P-Zeros are almost bald but I can't decide on a tire yet

I've always like the Bridgestone Potenza RE050a for it's quick steering response. They don't last long tho.

Yeah I'm looking for something that will last decently long, my p-zeros haven't even lasted 10k
