Never a dull moment

I thought the A7 was more of an autocross tire? I'd be hesitant to take that on the track unless you just need a tire for a quick qualifying lap or whatever. I would think it's going to overheat fast. |
Historically I believe you are correct regarding the A7 being a "autocross" tire. But in the last few years (maybe they changed the compound) club racers have started using it for qualifying and race. It seems to be the fast and smart choice. The downside is that it heat cycles out quickly. So for HPDE I would choose the R7 as it seems to have some drop off but fairly consistent speed throughout its life.
