Hoosiers vs. either Toyo RA1's, R888's, Nitto NT01's, etc.

[Mark Fox]

I have never driven the R888, but really did not like the RA-1's.  From what I have heard, experienced and read about the R-1 and Hoosier R-6,  The R-1 may be slightly slower.  It will be more consistent during sessions greater than 20+ minutes.  i didn't notice any fall off or greasyness at 30+ minutes coming in and then going right back out.  The longevity is still unknown, but suppose to be excellent.  Few bucks cheaper.

So if your doing events with long run sessions or open track days the R1 may be to your liking. 

If your racing the R-6 may be it for you.

If your doing the usual 18 to 25 minute DE sessions either one will work well.  You will start to slide more with the R-6 (still controlable) latter in the session.
