Not Ranked
BFGs had a few years on them so they were hard. Great burnout tires and easy on the drivetrain but wouldn't hold the car and with a 30lb. flywheel keeping the wheels spinning- downright dangerous. predictability ---yup---- right from the start. Sent me in a 360 in the autocross faster than I could recover.
MT S/Rs were good in a straight line but I tended to feel the car wiggle and sway slightly, they were sticky and made noise before letting go so I would say predictable. I did not Autocross with these tires.
Cooper Cobra let me know very slowly that they would slip and did so, however I could predict the slipping on cornering and powerslide through it--not exactly the fastest way around but I learned alot while doing so. They were a good burnout tire with a little more effort with my right foot and pulled you back in the seat.
Avons Sticky Stick Sticky for a street tire. I am still learning the slip angle and breakaway of this tire. It is testing my courage and learning experience but my car in the Autocross picked up several seconds. I'm still learning how far I can push these tires and myself, but its good knowing I have the tire under me. I've noticed they make very little noise compared to the others when cornering. They don't do great burnouts like the others as you move forward quickly, but I have moved away from this entertainment and since I don't care about the burnouts anymore I changed to an aluminum flywheel which really made the car quick in reference to accelerating and decelerating. This year I put more gear in the car. This should be fun.
I knew this was going to happen--dam disease--I have completely rebuilt my car in 7 years. Whats next.. a trailer?!
