f1 supercars vs super sports for autocross
Does anyone have enough autocross experience on these tires to say one or the other is better for autocross

I don't have a lot of experience with F1 Supercars but maybe this link could help, have a look at the data table, it shows the auto-x time they get for each tire:

I haven't ran the super sports yet. I have ordered them for next season though. I ran the F1s this year and while I think they aren't a bad tire I am sure that there is something better to use. I found that after 4 or 5 runs they fall off rather quickly. In nearly every event I ran my fastest runs were on the third run. The tread gets really chewed up and the grip falls off. If I go run the tires on the street for 20 or 30 miles the tread will clean up and the grip will pick back up again. These pics were after my last event. I have roughly 2000 miles and four events on these tires.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same. Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.  I can't wait for my next Track fix.

I have had the SS for about two months now. Had two days of autocross (6 runs per day) and they seem to be holding up pretty well.
