sure they are compared to a slick, but unless he's trailering, or prepared to rack tires on the roof or has a tire trailer the RA-1 are a good choice for road to DE applications. I can not speak for GS skill level, but the spec 911's in your club continue to make pretty good use of them.

I am aware the spec class was considering a switch hoosiers this year, but the toyos prevailed again in the end. most of the mid pack guys I was racing with wanted nothing to do with a single weekend tires much preferring the durability of the RA-!
