Only tires that make sense are the RR or RC1 for contingency, which isn't always met in my region versus 5 making it every single event. Making the power to max out 4 on those tires would cost about $8k or so, I think.
I very much agree on the r7's, I'm going to try to stay away from them if I can as well. I plan on doing some tire testing once the new car is built between the rr and r7.
My thoughts are why spend money to go slower? Granted it will cost less and even possibly be profitable to make it a pointy end 5 car.
