I just ran an event in Atlanta this past weekend, in a field of six (ESP) I
came in first on Toyo RA-1's, my competor also on RA-1's and 3 seconds
behind in third on BFG's. It was also raining the whole day. This is the
first time he has ran Toyo's and we were discussing among ourselves that we
think the tires are very good in the rain. I couldn't believe my times,
that was my first race in 8 or 9 months and I took first by 7 tenths. I am
very happy with mine.
