Thank you.

The shape is very different to Cups, they have very square edges

I have used two sets of V70 medium compound and I am still using them.
Great value for money!
My V70 lap times are the same with cup lap times.
The only disadvantage is that after 5 fast laps , V70 start to lose their efficiency. But 5 laps are enough for the car. So it's not a really problem.

THanks, sounds like you may need hard ones for long stints on track.

I've tried the medium and hard Kumhos, mediums lasted one track day and overheated, hards did two track days and two ring trips no problem.

How do they perform once the canvas is showing through ??
