Dry
The leading all season tyre in the dry shouldn't be a surprise, it was the Michelin CrossClimate 2! Maxxis also out performed the pack, with the Premitra All Season beating the third placed Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 by nearly 2 meters.
The difference between the best and the worst tyre was nearly 10 meters from just 100 km/h or 62 mph.
