He asks folks watching the video if they want him to do a similar video analyzing the Ford Mustang GTD lap.

That article and video were worth it just to know a wider tire on the same wheel can make you slower. Video was better than article due to more details.

Have you tried searching on the internet "Pirelli Trofeo RS tires in Canada?"

Hope they work well for you. These are supposed to replace the 4S, but they do not make many sizes yet, including nothing in 19 inch.

Ah, ok, I saw those photos (it is difficult to remember everything that everybody posts). I think the side view of those wheels and tires looks great, but I am not willing to accept rubbing anywhere. I guess I will check out whether the 325 tires are "close enough" for the rear, since they...

I did not realize this. I just took a look, and they all cut off at 2023. :facepalm:

Wow, how do they fit? Do you have pictures anywhere posted already?

Interesting, since they are 340 Treadwear, which usually means a harder compound that does not grip. Pilot Sport 4s is 300 Treadwear. My current (factory supplied) tires are 180. How (or why?) did you come up with those 325 and 355 sizes? Those are a lot larger than the Handling Package...

Very interesting. I thought for sure this would not cure it. Thank you for following up with us on the status.

Did he install a Whipple? LOL

Link (800 laps), Wallace (425 laps) and Cattell (600 laps) have extensive experience behind the wheel on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and have gone to the Nürburgring a combined 31 times to develop and test GM vehicles. The track offers unique road dynamics that challenge both the drivers and...

Did you watch the video? That driver is not losing 20-30 seconds to anybody. Brian Wallace is not a professional race car driver, but he is certainly no slouch and is familiar with Nurburgring.

I tried it a couple times. Ran over the pedestrian both times. The first one was just a test. The second one was a confirmation. I decided not to try it a third time.

Watch the rest of it. He hits 186 mph before two minutes are up in a curvy section.

Apparently, GM and Michelin spec'd two special tires with special TPC codes. I do not know which one of those two was on that run. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2024/09/2025-corvette-zr1-features-improved-tire-spec-over-c8-z06/

What tires are on the ZR1 making the run in the video?

That worked. Thank you. It was driving me a little bonkers.

A regular Porsche GT3RS beats the GTD time on Nurburgring.

An Ecoboost with magneride and the performance package would probably make a great track day car.
