RC1s vs RE71s
#12
This is super disappointing if it's true. I was really hoping to be decently competitive for TT5 next year locally, have some fun and win some tires, I don't have the funds or desire to go HP hunting for TT4.

In terms of fast laps:
I feel RC1s are on par with R888s.
R888s seem to be on par with RS3s.
NT01s feel significantly better than RC1s. Haven't had a chance to drive on RE71Rs, but hear they are as fast as a NT01, if not faster in some cases.
So,in order of preference for me:
1. NT01 / RE71R
2. RA1
3. RC1
4. RS3
5. R888

I have used the RC1s on two different vehicles (S2000 and Noble) and they don't have the grip as the RA1s or the NT01s that I've used. But, everyone's experience is different.

I was going to go with Trofeo R's until I saw how wide they run. I'd have to get my fenders rolled just to put a 255 on.

What I find interesting is you put the R888 and RA1 on the same level, despite the RA1 being universally faster.
