    For me that would mean adding about 230 lbs of ballast. Plus the contingency offered by Hoosier or BFG makes that a hard switch to make. I recently tried out some Yoko take offs back to back with some Hoosier R6's and those gave me about 1 to 2 seconds per lap. Both of them were take offs. The Yokos were definitely a softer compound though they wore through much faster but they didn't seem to drop off as much as the Hoosiers did when driven hard.

    Originally a 318, but looks a lot like an M3 now - can I be included?
