Race Tire Test Data

[UnbalancedEngineerin]

I was wondering if anyone on this board had any race tire test data they were willing to share. I am trying to determine how much change in suspension setup would be required to change from one race tire to another on my prototype. Since I'm still early in the design phase, I want to leave myself room to change the geometry sufficiently to allow for alternate tires. Thanks.

Any particular class? Avon has some F3000 data on their website.

The class regulations are wide open (NASA Pro Racing's Endurance Series). I am looking at tires for ~8" and ~10" wide wheels in either 17 or 18" dia. Thanks for the Avon lead, if nothing else it will give me a data point.
