I rode them today at HPR and I am very impressed!!! I felt comfotable right away, and they gave great feedback. I talked with Mike Applehans who will be the MRA rep. for the tires, he was very helpful in helping me getting the tire temps right and helping me with the changing conditions after the wind came. If you are thinking about tires, give the Continentals a shot...you might be surprised at just how good they are! Anyone who was at HPR today that tried them have any feedback?
