DO NOT buy a full slick if you’ve never spent time on them. You will be plenty happy with the grip, but it’s going to hide some of your driving flaws that will need to be corrected first (everyone has them), and when it finally bites you in the ass, it’s going to bite you hard. And I know you dont want to have to pull the Supra out of WGI on a flatbed and claim a hit and run against a baby blue car somewhere in Corning or Geneva. The ONLY way I would suggest an R6 is if you ONLY do Dunnville on them. Otherwise get some time (a few events) on a cheaper, decent street tire, or maybe a DOT-R and then move up gradually. If you want I can put you in touch with a few people who can further advise, but I’d also talk to Mike Lee who tracks his MKIV and Dave’s advice is basically spot on to my opinion (as he and I have shared our thoughts on this many times and had hours of tire debates and are basically the same opinion at this point hahaha)
