I'm running NASA TT3 in my GT350. Suspension pretty fully worked over, stock power (456rwhp), basically stock weight (4k+), 11.5" wide forged wheels with 325 tires. I stay in class by running GY F1 SuperCar 3 (not R). It's a daily driver, so not really competitive with well-prepped cars in class, not that I have enough driving experience to be top of class in a competitive field anyway. The car could better max out the class by adding aero and a few more HP, but it's unlikely to be truly competitive as a daily driver, which I understand. I'm working on building a dedicated track car from a '96 Cobra that I'll start in TT4, hopefully next year.
What made you settle on that tire? Instead of Cup 2s ?

25% discount on Goodyear tires through USAA. šŸ˜† My first set lasted most of a season (nearly 40 heat cycles) with pretty consistent performance, whereas my SC2s probably had a better peak but fell off more.

Lol I figured that was the reason. I just feel some type of way being that I paid 330 per tire last year lol but I know thatā€™s life right now. Switching the car funds to my truck for a bit so Iā€™ve been looking at dual purpose tire options. Itā€™s between the SC3 and Nankang CRS. Heard good things about the CRS but due to your review the SC3 may be the way.

Crs faster. Supercar3 last longer.
Supercar3R the fastest.
Cup2 same laptime than supercar3 but way more expensive

Ale, in terms of pace, where would you say ECF's fall? Faster than my current RR's?

Eric everything is faster than shitty toyo (RR and 888R)
The conti 200tw are meant to be an endurance tire.
Probably slighty faster than RS4.
I wouldn't use them for time trials at all.
I heard very good things about the new nexgen
N fera R
Apperently faster than rt660 (falken) but way better wearing.

Ok glad to hear. I'm trying to use up my current RR's and quickly move onto something else.

And I know, but I don't think myself or my car/budget is going to be competitive anyway. I'll likely go ECF or just go 3R.

The N Fera is quite a bit more expensive but if they do indeed last longer, that could be an option too.

3R as you know are on pace with HOOSIER. (once warm...before u can die lol)
If rotated u can get 3 or 4 days.
Nexgen for sure last longer
