Tracked my 300 yesterday at VIR

that track is addictive, the roller coaster is taken flat out (with the exception of one quick braking zone at the top) on a 300 and it's wild as hell. Knee to knee transitions everywhere, beautiful track

anyway, on topic. I ran the pilot street radials there with great success. It was approx 90-95 degrees out so I started melting them but they gripped well I was comfortable dragging my knee and toe through corners. No issues reaching the edge of the tire and I didn't have it slip on me at all. These tires didn't let me down at all, my brakes on the other hand....
