    Hoosier R6 vs. Pilot Sport Cup

    Allan, I do the exact thing with my 09 ACR since I'm either going to Va Int or Watkins Glen and the drives are so nice. I've gotten 7K combined road/track miles out of my Sport Cups so far (5 track weekends), even running 30psi on the street and the recommended 22psi at the track. I picked up a...
