Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
The R888's are great but you need to be checking the pressure's after each lap (of the 'Ring)
Leading evidence: 'Check pressure's' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check pressure's' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Been looking at Pirelli Corsa Rs and Toyo 888s.
Anyone got experience of both they can share and any suggestions on who has the best pricing?
End of May at the ring is going to be my last track venture in the Targa so got to make the most of it!
Thanks

R888's :worship:
Not tried the Corsa's, but heard good things about them !

I find 26(f) and 30(r) (cold) work very well.

A full set of R888's can be had for around £750-820, just be aware when you have them fitted and take your first drive the noise :wink: (but you soon get used to it)

I've replaced 3 sets of tyres in the last couple of months, not sure they sell the Toyos but this is the cheapest place I have found.

R888's would be my choice for all round ability, although prices have risen they still provide a longer life and ability in the rain when asked
spent 4 years on r888's on my gt3 as my main tyre that worked well, although it was about upto 6 secs a lap of the Nurburging slower than Michelin pilots which were by far the quicker tyre in the dry, so if you really want that final experience then get the Pilots
last venture :?:
Thanks for the feedback gents, much appreciated, where's the best place to get them?
Can't take this car any further, no worthwhile mods left...except the tyres
I'm doing BTG in about 8.15 after last weekend which is pretty much as good as it gets in a Targa, albeit with GT3 and KW3 suspension setup.
Looking for a cheaper track day car for the future, one without a glass roof and which can have a roll cage fitted!
Any ideas :?:
Tyres will make a huge difference, even Harry at Autowerks can get hold of R888's
that's a respectable BTG time for a TD event, look forward to my TF lap in May :thumb:
I've run 888's & Corsa R's and without doubt it's Corsa R's all the way for me now. More expensive to purchase initially but a far more economical proposition in the long run. Probably not quite as ultimately grippy as the 888 but very heat stable (I didn't see temps over 60 on Monday) and without that terrible drone that 888's give off. Quite useable in the wet too as long as you don't hit deep standing water at 120+
I've got a part worn set of fronts & brand new rear 888's if you want to make me an offer :thumb:
