The BFGoodrich g-Force R1 summer racing tire is specifically designed for track days, circuit racing, and high-speed enthusiasts seeking precise vehicle handling. This model is created for asphalt tracks with dry surfaces, where tires require instant response to steering, stability in long turns, and stability at extreme speeds. The tire is based on technologies that have been adapted from professional motorsports to meet the needs of enthusiasts participating in club racing and time attack competitions.
The BFGoodrich g-Force R1 tread pattern features a large-block directional design with a minimal number of drainage channels, all aimed at maximizing traction on dry asphalt. The central section with massive blocks provides stability during straight-line driving and clear feedback, while the wide "shoulders" of the tread guarantee high lateral stability and even load distribution in turns. This allows the tire to demonstrate characteristic slick-type handling while maintaining minimal suitability for driving on public roads.
One of the key components of this model, ensuring its excellent performance, is the Competition Compound rubber compound, one of BFGoodrich's signature developments. It is a two-layer compound, the inner part of which is characterized by increased stiffness and the ability to intensely dissipate heat from the carcass elements. The outer layer, which directly contacts the road surface, contains a complex of polymers and microsilicates that accelerate the warming-up process to "working" temperatures, while providing the tread with resistance to prolonged thermal exposure. In motion, the tire with this rubber compound demonstrates stable traction properties under extremely high loads, ensuring a low level of degradation of characteristics during runs and, at the same time, stability of lap time from start to finish.
Key features of the BFGoodrich G-Force R1:
- The Competition Compound racing rubber compound with heat-resistant polymers provides stable traction and predictable behavior on the track;
- The minimalist tread with large shoulder blocks increases handling and directional stability on dry surfaces;
- The reinforced carcass and armored sidewalls guarantee high precision of steering responses and even wear during intense loads.
