[DeTomaso] 15" Hoosier A6 Dot Race Tires for ORR

[adin at frontier.net]

gumballs and road hazards don't mix.

In Hoosier speak, does A6=autocross and R6=roadrace?  I would think  
the R would be better for long event.  I tried some Kuhmo autox tires  
at a track day and they "fell off" after 3 laps.
