AN INNOVATIVE ULTRA-LOW PROFILE TRACK TYRE, WITH ASYMMETRIC TREAD PATTERN

 

Designed for racetrack driving on dry asphalt. 

Developed to provide even greater performance:

- on the occasion of Track Days

- when fitted to the most powerful vehicles such as Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Lamborghini, including the MY2012.


With P Zero™ Trofeo R you can fully appreciate the performance of extreme vehicles in complete safety, especially on the track. 

In extreme conditions, typical of racetrack driving, it reacts with precision to commands. On dry asphalt, even in the most demanding sessions it ensures high levels of grip and constant trajectories. 
P Zero™ Trofeo R is not recommended for use in very wet track conditions.

Specific for racetrack driving, it is approved for road use, enabling travel to the track. In the event of very wet asphalt, with the risk of aquaplaning, prudent driving at reduced speed is recommended.

P Zero™ Trofeo R has brand new HAOF (highly aromatic oil free) compounds and a redesigned tread pattern that have produced extraordinary results: on the one hand, a notable improvement in stability and, above all lateral grip in the dry, on the other hand, a reduction in wear of up to 80%.

    Details

    OUTER AREA

    The outer area ensures the required rigidity to cope with the stresses during cornering, typical of racetrack driving. The solid shoulder - similar to a slick but more rigid - maximises lateral grip when cornering at very high speed, quickly changing trajectory on the track whilst maintaining complete control. This special mix of shape/functionality has enabled the achievement of very consistent performance.

    +
    INNER AREA

    The inner area, together with the longitudinal grooves, responds to the critical issues of wet surfaces and aquaplaning. The wide central ribs ensure precise trajectories and alleviate the stress of accelerating and braking on the track. The transversal grooves with special pattern provide constant traction and assist braking. The wide circumferential grooves enable water drainage, therefore maintaining traction in the wet.

    The right pressure for racetrack driving

    P Zero™ Trofeo RS has a stiff construction thus it does not necessarily need extra pressure to deliver performance. In fact they are designed to run at pressures around 2.2 bar (when hot), although the exact optimal pressure depends on the vehicle type.

    The operating pressure reached when the tyre is fully warmed at working temperature, is critical for understanding the vehicle set-up.

    Note that the pressure difference between “hot” and “cold” can be significant, typically around 0.5 bar.

    How do I set the tyre pressure correctly?

    Set the tyre pressures when cold to approximately 0.4 bar (6lbs/sq.ins) less than the required operating pressure. Drive the car on the circuit for 3-4 laps to bring the tyres up to temperature, re-enter the pit-lane and immediately re-set the pressures to the required operating pressure. Continue to check the ‘hot’ pressures throughout the use on the circuit if possible. Pirelli recommends the use of normal

    compressed air (preferably dry) to inflate the tyre, providing that the above procedures are followed. Specialist gases such as nitrogen are not required unless the air source is excessively humid. Always use a high-quality air pressure gauge for consistent results. The use of metal rather than rubber valve stems is recommended as these are more resistant to high temperatures.

    Before leaving the circuit and after the tyres have cooled down, DO NOT FORGET TO RE-SET TYRE PRESSURES TO THE STANDARD INFLATION PRESSURES AS RECOMMENDED BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER.

    Before entering the circuit

    Before taking your car out on a circuit it is important to take professional advice regarding car preparation and the installation of specialised safety equipment.

    For example, it is essential for circuit driving to install a full harness multipoint safety belt with quick release fittings. This equipment will hold the driver firmly in the seat (which itself must be checked for secure mounting): an essential feature in the event of an accident but also highly desirable during hard cornering and braking. The effectiveness of the seat harness can be further enhanced by the use of a racing seat, giving added lateral support to hold the driver in place during hard cornering. Installation of a roll bar is also advisable. Other equipment such as a roll cage and fire extinguishers, etc may be considered necessary depending on the activity involved.

    Once again, take professional advice as to what is required.
