Now THAT would be a safety issue-faster bike, on wets coming up to slower bike, on Diablo's in a corner=potential carnage-it's NOT going to happen.
I repeat, all wets allow you to do is go faster in the wet-it really only becames a safety issue if the main tyre you are racing on is unsuitable for wet conditions-like maybe a Diablo Super Corsa-which is what I seem to remember is what you would prefer to race on?? If you are using tyres like that which are basically cut slicks then of course you need a wet tyre. We are running this series on a ROAD tyre-you know as in designed to cope with all conditions, INCLUDING wet roads, so we don't actually NEED wets. I quote Geoff Spencer, who lets face it is the fastest guy out there overall
"I thought the Diablos seem to grip ok both in the wet and dry. If they start to slide out of control then slow down a bit. At least we are all on the same tyres wet or dry."
