Reply to "High-performance tires and cold, wet weather"

Excellent words to the wise. My sympathies for your loss. I am scouring the forum for wheel tire data and this gives me food for thought. I have a track car with track tires (Toyo RA1) and don't need to push the Pantera to 1+ lateral Gs anyway. I can go 70mph with the stock motor just fine and am currently driving on Michelins from the 1970s in the OEM sizes while I look for new wheels/tires and find that the car composes itself quite well. Since I live in Minnesota I will be looking for some high performance tires that perform well in the rain and at least cold but not snow. That being said, once a mid-engined car starts to go, especially without modern electronic assists, it goes. I'm glad you weren't hurt.
