Joe,
I can’t really give a fair compaison of the tires. I bought them because they were the spec tire at MMX in NC. I was running there before I started road racing. I can say for sure that they are durable. I got a full race day (2 practice sessions, 1 qualifying session, a 10 minute race and a 15 minute race) at MMX + a race at SPR (2 practice sessions and a 30 minute race) + a full practice day (6 10 minute sessions) at VIR + a full race day (2 practice sessions and a 30 minute race) at VIR out of them so far. I plan to run them at least one more race at SPR as they still look pretty good. I asked a similar question a few week back and was told that the Hoosiers are probably about a second a lap slower than the MG Yellows but that they are more durable. I beat some guys running the MGs and got beaten by some guys running MGs. I’m just not fast/experienced enough to know how much time is in the tires and how much is in my driving.
