Default Those of you using Azenis...

I just picked up a set of the older RT-215's and I'm wondering if I need to warm these up to get maximum traction out of them. There's a ton of tread, so I figured it would be more like a drag radial in that you have to warm them up with a burn out to get them to stick.

What does everyone do?

they are not like DR. The sidewall is super stiff so when you drop pressure the sidewall does not wrinkle like a dr. I used them for a few events and they seemed to work better not heating them up. Go around the water box and spin them a little to the line to clean them off.

Yep what this guy said. People have pulled off 1.9 and 2.0 60 fts, but that really doesnt say much as i pulled a 2.0 on AVS ES 100s.
