The ContiSportContact 2 is Continental's Max Performance Summer tire developed to meet the needs of the drivers of powerful sports cars, sports coupes and luxurious performance sedans. The ContiSportContact 2 features Continental's bionic* compound and contour technologies to enhance traction, braking and handling. Like all summer tires, the Continental ContiSportContact 2 is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The ContiSportContact 2 features Continental's bionic tread compound technology molded into an asymmetric design that enhances steering response and precision while the tire's continuous ribs provide the circumferential stiffness to transmit drive and braking forces. The continuous circumferential tread grooves between the ribs help disperse water to resist hydroplaning. The tire's internal structure features Continental's Advanced Mold Contour (AMC), which allows the tire to become wider during braking to help shorten stopping distances. The ContiSportContact 2 features twin steel belts reinforced by nylon to stabilize the tread area and enhance handling as well as high-speed capability.

El neumático ContiSportContact 2 de Continental pertenece al segmento de Máximo Rendimiento Para Verano y fue desarrollado para satisfacer las necesidades de conductores con autos deportivos poderosos, cupé deportivos y sedanes lujosos. El ContiSportContact 2 utiliza un compuesto de caucho biónico* y tecnología de contorno desarrollada por Continental, para mejorar la tracción, frenado y maniobrabilidad. Como todo neumático de verano, el ContiSportContact 2, no fue diseñado para ser utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve.
La mezcla de caucho biónica del ContiProContact 2 es moldeada en un diseño asimétrico, que aumenta la respuesta y la precisión al girar el volante. Un segmento continuo provee la rigidez circunferencial, para transmitir las fuerza de manejo y frenado. Las ranuras circunferenciales continuas entre los segmentos, ayudan a dispersar el agua y reducir el deslizamiento en agua (hydroplaning).
La construcción interna del ContiProContact 2 utiliza el “Molde Avanzado de Contorno” (Advance Mold Contour, AMC por sus siglas en inglés) que permite que el neumático se agrande al frenar, lo cual, acorta la distancia al parar. Además, el ContiProContact 2 incluye correas gemelas de acero reforzadas con nailon, para estabilizar la banda de rodamiento, lo cual, mejora la maniobrabilidad y la capacidad del neumático a velocidades elevadas.
*Ciencia interesada por la aplicación de información sobre sistemas biológicos en la solución de problemas de ingeniería.
