Last weekend was a pretty great day out on the skid pad. We decided to use the opportunity to test some… alternative tires.
Apparently, 15 inch “lawn mower” tires don’t have quite the same reinforcement you’d expect from a typical automotive tire. Who knew? Despite heating up surprisingly quickly, these things survived roughly 13 rounds (we lost count) before looking like this. And somehow, not a single one exploded during a drift run.
Clearly, more research is required. We’ll be heading back to Princess for additional research material.
