The initial grip was good but as the race wore on it seemed to want to slide a lot. I lowsided once getting on the gas.

The tread looks like it would work good for double duty of pavement and dirt, but for pavement only, it falls very short of the Dunlop and Bridgestone.

(i raced a TB143 w/head and 4sp w/14-39 gearing.)
