My mpss's didn't chunk at all under massive heat ( why would they put these on the z51 c7 corvette which is marketed as track ready if that were the case...same thing with the gt350. And compared to the g2, the traction was the same on the track and the mpss took less heat to stick, has better wear and is far superior in wet conditions.

This isn't a knock against you, but if you don't have real world experience with both tires, I wouldn't jump to conclusions ( or be that guy that references magazines and articles.... The new good year might be better, but if we're comparing the g2, mpss takes win from my experience on a track. I have a set of new good years on the way, so I'll be able to tell you in the spring for sure.

With that being said...with the new Michelin design, I'm pretty sure it will at least match the performance of the new good year.
Ok, well, I'm going off of everyone elses' experiences with all of the tires: http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=474207 .. It seems like the prevailing opinion of real-world experiences tends to favor the Supercar 2 tires. And keep in mind, the Supercar 2 tires were a huge upgrade from the originals, and the Supercar 3 tires are likely going to improve upon that formula.

I can't convince you and that's fine. But the truth is we're both speculating mostly positively about the PS4S. I'm speculating that the PS4S will be the best all-around daily-driver tire, and you're speculating that it'll be the "Chosen One" of tires, able to outpace tires that wear out 3x faster with ease, even ones specifically designed for the Camaro, specifically designed for track.

I think you're being far too optimistic and setting yourself up for disappointment, but truthfully, the only one that could be hurt by that expectation is yourself. I'll never believe the PS4S tires will outperform (or even match) the Supercar 3 tires' performance without hard proof (since the claims are so extraordinary) and you're starting to suggest that proof of the opposite wouldn't even matter to you so there's really no use in continuing.
