              Why wasn't I called for tire testing? This seems like a real oversight

                My apologizes I was not in control of invites. If I was you all would have been invited.
                It certainly was very informative and fun.

                  So, looks like you were testing Bridgestone Potenza's. Anything good we can use on our Camaro's?

                  I worked at Bridgestone/Firestone for a short time about 30 years ago. My Dad retired from there. Kind of interested in what they put out and like to buy their products when I can. I had Firestone Firehawks on my Trans Am and really liked them.

                  Sorry for the slight hi-jack...

                      Did not know your dad's history with Firestone what did he do?
                      Yes we drove the corvette on potenza S04 tires and they did extremely well and man that car is fun.
                      There are currently all season firehawks available for Camaro.

                        My Dad first worked at a Firestone factory in Indiana making brakes. When they closed that plant he transferred to the Bridgestone/Firestone OTR Factory in Normal and built the big off road tires. I worked there one summer and got laid off which turned out to be a good thing for me.
