CONTINENTAL SportContact 7 vs MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup 2

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

English text below.
Jak jsem sliboval, tak jsem i udělal! Připravil jsem pro vás onboard srovnání nejužívanějších trackday pneumatik, Continental SportContact 7 a Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. Výsledné časy jsou 1:51,35 pro CONTINENTAL a 1:52,33 pro MICHELIN. Vzhledem k tomu, že je Michelin dražší o více jak 50 % oproti Continentálu, tak jsem z výsledku mile překvapen. :D
Na zadních pneu mám stále pneumatiky Michelin, protože v mém (debilním americkém) rozměru se nic jiného nedělá.
As I promised, I delivered! I have prepared an onboard comparison for you of the most commonly used trackday tires, the Continental SportContact 7 and the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. The resulting times are 1:51.35 for CONTINENTAL and 1:52.33 for MICHELIN. Considering that Michelin is more than 50 % more expensive than Continental, I am pleasantly surprised by the results. :D
I still have Michelin tires on the rear, as nothing else is available in my size.

    Thats a big statement from Conti. To take out MPC2R's that well, with a tyre built to compete against the MPS4's. I'm incredibly blown away.

    Hi, MPSC2 normal CUP2 with N0 (Porsche). And Continental with EV check, without any other homologation. MPSC2 CONNECT for GT350 are almost unreal to order in Europe, very unavailable goods.

    @ Same here. Rear bar is set to the softest front is 2nd up. I did get the DSC for the dampers and that helped with the fast rebound. Not sure if you can do it, but I have HSC hi-flo 200 cell cats on the car from fabspeed. It is noticeable and no tune needed. HSC is German so maybe you can just cut the stock cats off and replace with those. BTW ford just warrantied my engine for a gen 2 for oil consumption. So now its has the R valve train parts.

    How does Conti handle higher tyre temperatures that you get while track driving after a few laps? Also, does it wear much faster after getting hot? How is it compared to Mcup2 in above aspects?

    After 10 - 15 minutes of driving on track, my SportContact 7 went from 2.1 to 2.5 bar (30 to 36 psi). On the next session I had to take it very easy the first lap to get the tires warmed up because the cold pressure was very low. Overall, I found SportContact 7 to have way way too soft of a sidewall for a 3500 lbs car (235/35 and 265/30 R19). Would not buy again due to a very soft sidewall.

    @@KeisukeTMIn the end this is not a track tire. It worked and was sticky but otherwise it wasn't good. Tire roll was felt from the drivers seat immensely. I've driven other street tires on track with better experience. Maybe it's in my case in particular and my sizes (235 in a 9 inch wheel and 265 on a 10 inch wheel), but the tire roll was so bad that I would call it dangerous. I will eventually drive these on track again to use them up but this time with even more pressure to make up for the sidewall. One last thing... when I put these tires on I immediately noticed how comfortable the car became in normal driving. A very soft tire.

However (again just for road use) i found it the best tyre i ever tried even compared with michelin (not for mileage)

    It depends on what you require. The Conti has the best price/performance ratio but is not suitable for endurance racing as it is still a UHP road tyre. Michelin is very expensive and can withstand more pressure. I don't race and I can do perfect times with Conti, so it's an ideal choice for me.

    I can confirm your finding on being too soft and that the car "swims" around before the tires settle in their sidewall movements. My sidewalls are 35 and 30 and I found the experience disappointing. The overall grip is high... once the tires settle. I do actually wonder if different sizes drive differently. They were praised by the online reviews but I didn't find them to be great in my sizes (235/35/19 265/30/19).

Anyway thank you for the video different drivers will have different results. I don’t mean to discredit your test 🫡
