if it's damp you make a choice and then you ride accordingly - just like now when you have to ride accordingly on dry tyres irrespective of track condition. if you get it wrong you don't go as fast and you dont do as well. Simples |
Well put!!!
I chose the wrong tyres on Sat afternoon and was 3 seconds off my dry pace. But wets aren't dangerous in the dry and contary to common belief you won't knacker a set over 7 laps in the dry. They just go a bit like jelly and become slightly vague. If it was dangerous the ACU wouldn't let you race in the dry using wets and it isn't dangerous using dry tyres in the wet as DD has prooved. But you will actually have better races if riders can use wet tyres in the rain, because I tell you what I have just raced in Monsoon conditions with standing water and the wets certainly weaved their magic.
