2012 Sport Auto Track Day Tire Test
The new Dunlop Sport Maxx Race is a strong dry weather tire. One of the fastest lap times, it has a beautiful neutral balance and is extremely strong on the brakes. It seems to have traded a little wet performance for the excellent dry handling, as when the track gets wet the grip levels fall away and the handling gets a little snappy.
