This actually kind of bums me out. I think Continental did a lot for the series and the Continental tire challenge is fantastic the way it is. In the WTSCC i can't see performance levels going up much just because it's going to say Michelin instead of Continental, spec is spec after all, but perhaps I'm wrong. If conti could keep the CTSCC and Michelin had WTSCC that would be cool...
On the bright side since GTLM is still open tire maybe Conti can try and come back with a customer program, but that's a tough sell going from being a money making spec supplier to a money spending development tire.
