The Sport Maxx Race is Dunlop’s Streetable Track & Competition tire developed for serious driving enthusiasts that want to drive their cars to and from racetracks to participate in track lapping days and High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) events.
Homologated as part of the Mercedes-Benz Original Equipment (O.E.) track package option on C63 AMG Coupe Black Series models, Sport Maxx Race tires meet all the requirements for road use. However, like other Streetable Track & Competition tires, they are not intended to be driven on extremely wet roads with standing water where there is the risk of hydroplaning, or in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice. It’s also essential these tires be stored indoors at temperatures maintained above 32 degrees F.
Sport Maxx Race tires mold a motorsport derived tread compound into an asymmetric tread design featuring a massive outboard shoulder block and continuous center ribs that enhance steering response and cornering stability to help drivers keep their vehicles balanced when cornering in dry conditions. While high-angle outboard shoulder grooves, circumferential grooves and independent inboard tread blocks help preserve wet traction.
The tire's internal structure includes two full-width steel belts reinforced with Dunlop’s JointLess Band (JLB) Technology to stiffen the tread area and help prevent contact area distortion during aggressive acceleration, cornering, braking and high-speed use.
Sport Maxx Race tires are molded with approximately 8/32" of tread depth in their grooves and are left unshaved for use on damp tracks. While the tires do not require shaving for dry track use, their durability and lap time performance will improve if shaved to approximately 4/32" deep tread to begin competitive road racing/track use in dry conditions, however this will sacrifice significant treadlife.
Caution: Sport Maxx Race tires are not recommended for high-speed driving on extremely wet roads/tracks with standing water where there is the risk of hydroplaning. This is especially true of shaved or worn tires. Drivers should drive cautiously at reduced speeds in these conditions.
El neumático Sport Maxx Race de Dunlop pertenece a la categoría: De Carretera Para Pista y Competencia y fue desarrollado para entusiastas realmente comprometidos con la conducción, que desean conducir sus autos hacia la competencia y de vuelta a casa, al igual, que eventos educativos de manejo da alto rendimiento (High Performance Driver Education).
El Sport Maxx Race es el neumático original (O.E., por sus siglas en inglés) para la opción del paquete de pista (track package) del Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Black y cumple con todos los requisitos para su uso en carreteras. Sin embargo, como todo neumático: De Carretera Para Pista y Competencia, no ha sido fabricado para conducirlo en carreteras extremadamente mojadas, con agua estancada, donde pueda presentarse un deslizamiento (hydroplaning) o en temperaturas cerca de niveles de congelación, con hielo o nieve. También, es esencial, al momento de guardarlas interiormente, mantener un temperatura de por encima de 32 grados Fahrenheit (0 grados Celsius).
El Sport Maxx Race posee un
compuesto de caucho derivado del automovilismo y es moldeado en una
banda de rodamiento con diseño asimétrico. Esta, posee bloques grandes
en la parte exterior del hombro y un segmento central continuo, que
mejora la respuesta al girar el volante y la estabilidad al tomar
curvas, especialmente sobre superficies secas. Ranuras con ángulos altos
en el hombro exterior, canales circunferenciales y bloques
independientes, ayudan a preservar la tracción sobre superficies
mojadas.
La estructura interna incluye dos correas anchas de acero
reforzadas con la tecnología JointLess Band (JLB, por sus siglas
en inglés), para darle mayor rigidez al área de la huella y prevenir la
torsión lateral producto de aceleración agresiva, frenado, tomar curvas
y el uso a velocidades elevadas.
La profundidad del Sport Maxx
Race es aproximadamente 8/32" (6.6 mm) y no es afeitado cuando se
utiliza en pistas húmedas. Aunque, no se necesita afeitar los neumáticos
para su uso en la pista, su durabilidad y el tiempo por vuelta,
mejorarán si se afeitan a una profundidad de aproximadamente 4/32” (3.4
mm), para uso en competencias de carretera/pista en condiciones secas;
sin embargo esto sacrificará significativamente el ciclo de vida de la
huella.
Precaución: Los neumáticos Sport Maxx Race no son
recomendados para velocidades elevadas sobre carreteras/pistas
extremadamente mojadas, donde exista agua empozada y el riesgo de
resbalar sobre ella (hydroplaning). Es aún más peligroso con
neumáticos afeitados o gastados. Si se presentan estas condiciones la
velocidad debe ser reducida y conducir con precaución.
