I have hard Bridgestone street tires that I track the car with. I find them more fun to slide around on.

65 years old here. I started with a 2004 Z06. I traded it in for a 2008 Z06. I then bought another 2004 Z06. I really like the C5 cars.

I can't believe we have the same tires! My ZPs are the loudest tires I have ever heard. I hate them on the street. On the track however, they stick quite well when warm.
