Re: Quick Initial review: Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons

The roads were plowed and treated and dry. So I pushed it a little. Going into the same curves at the same speed I went on the LS2's, the F1's gripped the road much better then the LS2's. I also did a stand still launch. Where the LS2's would of lost it and spun and engage T/C, the F1s held their ground and didn't break a sweat. Now due to the harder rubber, going over a unusual bump in the road and not ready for it did cause the wheels to take control of the steering wheel for a second and the car swerved back and forth a bit, but I tightened my grip on the wheel and got the car back into control. The LS2's handled it much better then the F1's. So I will avoid that bump with the F1's as the best I can. Now only for rain to test wet traction and this comparison between the LS2's and the F1's will be pretty much complete. So far F1's: 2 LS2's: 0.

PS: GMFan, F14 was talking about the LS2 V8.
