I was invited to @AtlantaMotorsportsPark for the @KumhoTireUSA Ride & Drive Experience, where Kumho officially launched their latest Ecsta tire lineup — including the Ecsta Sport, Ecsta Sport S, and Ecsta All-Season tires.
To showcase the performance of these new tires, Kumho handed over a fleet of performance vehicles — including a bunch of Porsches (GT4RS, 911 Carrera S), Ford Mustangs, and MINI Coopers — and let us loose on a world-class racetrack. I got behind the wheel and hit 100+ MPH on the back straight of AMP in the GT4RS… and yes, it was as insane (and intimidating) as it sounds.
