Toyo R1R at Dixie Tour results

*************************UPDATE***************************

Well Dixie Tour is over and results are in. R1R did not too bad. Came first in STS2, STX, and STXL. There have been some really mixed reviews so far. Even tho they are giving higher G’s(MaxQdata) many who were using them say R1R’s feel numb. Wear issues are another problem. But, really at the moment is kind of early to really say how they are. Check out the results HERE.

Exterior is a bit iffy, but the interior has go great remarks. The only thing that might be a strange is how high the tachometer hood is. In the Sports Modulo Version the Tachometer and Speedometer have swapped locations.
