Just got back from Cadwell as Mark from holbeach tyres was there and i needed new rubber to scrub in on saturday, its spitting on and off there and people are running backwards and forwards to him saying can you take the tyres off and put wets on then 20 mins later are back again asking for the wets to be taken off again i think they are all confused.com

Saturday practice at Pembrey in the damp to wet i felt i had plenty of grip and could have gone quicker if i had known the track, so regardless of if it had rained or not i would have stuck with the dunlops.

i don' think it says anything?

you have 2 sets of wheels. one with wets on one with dry tyres.

if its dry you put dry wheels in, if its wet you put wet wheels in.

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
