[QUOTE="julianpang, post: 729497, member: 2315"] [b]Silverstone Type RR test result update[/b] I have completed Autocross last Sunday with the tyres. The surface has lots of loose gravel. To my surprise, the tyres really grips. I started out all the rounds in cold tyres. Even with cold tyres, the grip was much better than AD07. I bet if I were to heat in up properly, it would have been better. Coming out of corner in 1st gear was a dream. It sticks to the ground better than AD07 even in loose gravel. On the race day, Russel Palmer from Silverstone was there. He was nice enough to feed me some info on TypeRR. Apparently he said there are 2 types of TypeRR in Malaysian market. 1 is soft compound and the other is medium compound. The one I had on is medium compound. There is a way to differetiate the 2. If you look at the sidewall, 575 is soft and 578 is medium. He recommend me to get the soft compound for Autocross. The medium compound will be more suitable for track use. I am very happy with even with medium compound. I cant imagine if I were to run it with soft compound. Russel mentioned that the TypeRR has more rubber than other Silverstone semi slicks model.
