I did a couple track days on c91s last year, and wow is all I can say. They were GST's take-offs, but only used for 3 laps before I got them.

the c51's would be the better tire for most people. they last 2x longer and don't require you to cool the tires down from extreme heat that the c91's create.

Also depending on car setup, the faster tracks will blister the c91's because they are too soft. for example, i would never run a set of c91's at Auto club Speedway. with top speed in the 185+ before the bank on the oval, they will blister within the first lap.

Ok, I run standing mile as well, so I'd be better off with the c51's? how much for a set shipped to 37214?
