the ohlins would be useless for me considering i've never been on a track before, i couldn't ride the rc to maybe 50% of what it is capable of stock, now. - also i do have 190/55's on the way. i bought 3 sets of michelin take offs on ebay last week for like $240 shipped. one set was 70% all the way around on the front and 60/90/50% on the rear so that should be a good set for the track. the others are low % on the sides so they'll suffice as daily tires

live in KY, unfortunately there's no tracks close to here so i'll be driving 6+ hours to get anywhere for some classes/track time
