Ligier LMP3 JS P3 2018
Race
Tire: 40 Slicks
Tire Size: 30/65/18
Published on 16 Jun, 2024

More often, this Ligier JSP320 LMP3 is run on a staggered compound Michelin racing slick - medium compound on the front, hard compound on the rear. In this test, we try a cheaper, more durable Hankook slick in a hard compound front and rear. The result is what we might have expected: a challenging front end limited by understeer. Keep in mind, these cars have no driver assist systems - no traction control, no ABS. So the change to a harder front tire coupled with the usual "Hey Aaron, can you tell me what you think of this in 5 laps" presented a bit of a mental challenge. Conclusion: Yes, it understeers. But it is manageable so long as you don't mind going slow. For me, I say strap on some Michelins and let the big dog eat!
