I'm quite surprised at how well it grips the road, especially wet. Not saying I can't break it free but careful driving you can accelerate pretty hard and stay in road contact.

Oh rats..... excellent video thanks for sharing.
I used the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S ZPs in the past on the Vette and I also liked the way they performed in the rain. However, after the tread was worn to 4mm in the middle, I had problems with traction on wet roads. Still, this could be a problem typical for wide tires.
