Seems like a long time ago. I thought that the fall off in the V710's was precipitous after about 60 runs. They were serviceable but not competitive for the ext 30 to 40 runs. Time your purchase so that you are within that first 60 run window for the important events unless you can afford multiple sets.

Wow, your right. That was a long time ago. LOL Was that event with the Alaska Sports Car Club? They are still kicking around, after a two year layoff (no money) we are running the Fur Rondy Gran Prix again this year.

Back OT, I agree that the Kuhmo V710 loose quite a bit of grip after that many runs, but I agree with madmax, they seem to still have useful grip for fun events that you may not feel the need to be ultra competitive in.
