At a familiar track, only about a mile and a half long, the R7s were good for a full second over PZeros.
Set my new personal best by 1.01 second.
Also won my race class (ST2) on Saturday (started 4th overall finished third overall), took the overall race pole on Sunday out of 27 big/small bore cars (finished 5th overall after I ran out of fuel on the final lap, doh!), and set a new track record for NASA TT2 at this track by 1.5 seconds.
Took a while and some very skeptical tire pressure adjustments to make the R7s really work but I think I have a pretty good handle on them now.
And best of all, there were 6 people in my race and TT class each day so I was able to bank a whole set of Hoosiers for free in contingency for the weekend Not sure if I will order R7s or A7s yet.
I read on FB Tom was having a heck of time getting the R7's to hook, but it seems like a pressure thing. They seem to have much softer sidewalls and need even more pressure. What pressures did you end up using?

Don't forget to specify sticker R7's vs "pzero scrubs". My sticker PZero's were about 1.5 seconds faster (requiring 10psi less) than my sticker Hoosier R100's which were 1.5 seconds faster than sticker R6's. The R100's lasted less than the R6's and the pzeros are holding tread the longest so far. Just my exp.
