Thumbs up Can you mix GT2 wheels and Turbo wheels on the track?

Can I run GT2 front wheels (8.5inch) with regular Turbo Twists rear wheels (11inch) for a one day track event in the rain?

I would run my GT2 rear wheels (12inch) but there's a 70% chance of rain this saturday and i'll be at NJMP Lighting with my rear tires swap (the tread will be facing the wrong way). I was wearing down the inside more than the outside tread for my PZero neros (the inside tread was to the wear marker) and I had my wheel guy flip it for me so I can do this last track event before I toss the tires.

If i run the Turbo twists rear, they would be Michelin Pilot Sport tires.

What do you guys think? Will I kill myself with this setup i the rain? Anybody else try this before?

Don't worry, be happy. As long as the tires are all close in real rolling diameter,
you'll be fine.
