Questions on tires and take offs

[dragos13]

Just to throw this out there...

If one were to run race tires vs. street tires, would you be looking at tire warmers?

I've considered it unnecessary, and in fact maybe a bad idea to use warmers on something like the Dunlop Q2's since they will warm up relatively quickly at novice speeds. But race tires should be put on warmers regardless. Thoughts anyone?

I usually don't use warmers on practice days. They do help with heat cycles. Definitely needed on race days. On practice days, I just take a lap or two to warm up the tires.
