Kirkland impressed with new DMACK tyre.

The Mitsubishi EVO 3 of Sam Kirkland and Matt Best debuted the DMACK DMT-RC tarmac tyre at the recent Targa Wrest Point in Tasmania.
 

In Kirkland's first ever tarmac outing, the team were third in the Early Modern category of the event.
 
"I was really interested in trying this tyre, the brand are becoming highly involved in the WRC. They offered very good grip and gave you the confidence to really lean on the tyre," Kirkland said.
 
The team is the first to use the DMACK tyre in this event, and only one of a handful to use them in the current Australian Tarmac Rally Championship.
 
"We ran out of time to bed in the tyres, so our grip wasn't quite as good on the first day. The second day is when the tyres were working really well, and
lasted the complete two day rally.
 
"These are a very affordable, high specification competition tyre. I think it's only a matter of time before they will be on a lot more cars in this championship," Kirkland added.
