Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience

I've got the 888s. Incredibly sticky!
I wouldn't advise them for daily use in all weathers though, but for track tyres that you can drive to the track on they are perfect.

Normal road tyres are crap on track.
Ive used Yokohama A048R's on the rear of my fiesta on the last 2 track days in soft compound and the back end grip is amazing for a road legal tyre!
Got some medium compound for the fronts for bedford this saturday so hoping to have less understeer.
Known a few people use Toyo 888's on track and they all say they go off far too quick.
Also heard nothing but praise for Dunlops.
