This is a track review, I did a trackday at Snetterton on 13/11/2021 in wet / damp conditions. The tyre performed as well as the more expensive Uniroyal Rainsport 3's on my other set of wheels. I've already given my opinion on them on the road and they are very good all round for a summer tyre.

Comment:
My car has been mapped to 200bhp, the diesel Golf has a lot of torque but grip has been no problem at all with the 926's up front. They came on a set of wheels I bought and I didn't expect a lot from them but they have performed really well over the summer in both wet and dry conditions. They don't look like they have worn at all despite highly spirited driving around corners and roundabouts as well as a couple of drag races and some 0 - 60 launches. If you use the throttle like an on / off switch they will set off the traction control but no more than anything else would as far as I can tell. I haven't tried them in cold conditions yet and I'm looking at using them on a trackday so will be interesting to see how they hold up. I'll be surprised if they are good in the cold as they are a summer tyre and only the best summer tyres will let you drive hard over winter. I've looked up the prices and for the money they are good either way.
