I have to say, they are definitely 'fast'.
46:57 today for 25 miles.
Nice! Good to know. I have a set of Anthracite ones on my TT wheels, waiting for race day. I was supposed to race today, but the TT got cancelled over a dispute on insurance from the race organization and people providing the parking.

Gutted the Corsa gum sidewall could be discontinued? What a weird decision by Vittoria if so.
Finally getting comfortable on the new TT rig
for whatever reason even though the geo is the same as my P2, this P3 is taking a while to adjust to. And not just the front end, but rear as well. Saddle in the same 'x' 'y' and all. Odd. But the thing is a rocket!
Next up is trying an Aerohead methinks. And a newer NoPinz tripsuit.

The Corsa is still available in gum wall. It is the Corsa Speed that is only being offered in anthracite. I think it has something to do with the tubeless set up. There is some sort of rubberized coating on the inside of the tire.
The P3 looks great. I have the arrowhead and the one thing I would mention to potential users in the UK, it fogs up easily in mid-temp humid/wet conditions.

Looks amazing! How often do you stretch?

Honestly, rare to never.
Functional flexibility by simply riding my TT rig a lot.

Ok thanks. I'm screwed.

Why do you say that? Riders actually spending quality time on their TT bike is probably one of the biggest time trial performance gains out there.

+1
unfortunately there is no substitute to this. You can stretch, pilates, lift, run, swim.. do all... but dont expect to see gains of a substantial nature unless you spend hours beasting yourself on your TT...
