It looks like the BRCA F1 series has selected the Control tyre for F1. I'm a big fan of this series and hope to get to some of the national events this year.

There has been a lot of track testing and the GRP tyre has become the chosen make for the series. The good thing about F1 as a class as the tyres last a long time. One set could last you the whole series (It is on carpet). 

The question is what F1 will I race ;)

Here is the info from the BRCA website.
received 10153604591709083Unlike other classes for example 1/12 LMP where there is a near "industry standard fitment" for wheels, F1 doesnt have that yet. We held an "open" testing event at Swifts Raceway on August 23rd, we invited drivers of all abilities to turn up and run 4 different set of tyres from 3 manufactures.
We asked the drivers to try not and focus on what may be the "fastest" tyre, but give us feedback as to the feel and balance shift across the sets.
Following this test we are pleased to announce:

GRP GFX10-S2 and GFX20-S2 as the 2015/16 BRCA Control Tyre

Note ONLY the carbon aluminium effect wheels will be permitted.
GRP Tyres Spec Sheet
Tyres will be marked and checked by officials before the meeting's commence, if any tyres are deemed to have been tampered with in their construction, they will be held for inspection.
