Hoosier DOT Competition Tires
After extensive track testing,
this new model called the R6 for use on road race courses and the A6
for autocross competitions, will give the customer significant
performance advantages over the previous models. The A6 tire has
both a new construction and a new tread compound. The R6 tire has
been developed with the same construction as the A6, yet retaining
the same successful tread compound as the previous R3S05 model.
The new A6 and R6 models produce crisper steering response and
improved transitional performance. The new construction also
provides increased overall grip and greater stability at the higher
limits of adhesion allowing the driver to apply more power with
confidence. The improved tread compound on the A6 tires will deliver
more consistent run times over a longer exposure to heat than the
previous AS305 compound.
Testing of the new A6 tires has confirmed less degradation of grip
after several runs. Testing of the new A6 tires has also produced
better overall wear due to improved tread profiles and the increase
in overall grip. The R6, when used on road courses, will reward
drivers with faster, consistent lap times and extended wear due to
the improved traction and the previously proven R tread compound.
