Talking NEOVAs - quick update

Howdy all,


Just a quick note to confirm these tires are sensational. I just drove home in a typhoon and the grip is head and shoulders above any street tires I've owned on previous cars.


It took a strong dose of idiocy in torrential rain and deep puddles to make the car push in tight corners.


All the best!

I'll be running on Neova's at wednesday's Super Street Time Attack in Yokohama's street tire class supra. I have high hopes for the tire on a over powered, overwieght street car. lol

Cheers. As a little disclaimer, NO tire is invincible...as always, traction suffers in the wet, ask any F1 driver.

The Neova's just seem, subjectively, to hold on significantly longer before a plough is induced on wet, low-speed, tight/right-angle corners around the neighbourhood.

As for rain-soaked 75mph sweepers, testing those limits is YOUR prerogative.

VB...
