Not sure that is what you said chrisgixer. My point is that asking someone to submit a subjective review with a description of how they drive is bound to lead to people overestimating their driving abilities.

Its like the halfords website options if you choose to submit a review. All of them say that "they are willing to spend a little more as they are quality seekers". But this is what people choose even when reviewing a 99p screwdriver. No one seems to choose the "I am a buy the cheapest product kind of guy".

So my point was that you wouldnt get relevant recommendations if you asked for them, even from OOF. But I am willing to be proven wrong.

Apologies if my previous post sounds rude.

And Tunnie, I do apologise for my unwarranted references to you.
I do understand, as said in my fast, medium, slow post D. I saw it all the time on track days. Especially on the novice days as an extra group.

Maybe, tight as a ducks arse, economic, expensive, and bloody waste of money headings for drivers groups would be more pc. But equally less likely to get honest self assessment. ;)

I thought we had already agreed handling is not measurable?

I would honestly describe myself as competent :) and as a competent driver, I stand by my opinions of the tyres that I listed earlier. :y

Drive a diesel which isnt fast enough to pull a greased stick out of a dogs bum so not worried about cornering speeds in the wet ect just need then to have enough tread to shift the water should I need to stop ::)
