The tyre rules work very well in sprinting, so I doubt that there will be too many 'serious' complaints. It's no different to free choice of suspension, brakes and cars after all.

The tyres I keep reading good things about happen to be one of the cheaper ones anyway....Silverstone FTZ RR

Al mate take chill pill for feck sake:chillpill:

Where can I get an electric cattle prodder from as I think i'm going to need something to keep Al in check. Either that or a tasser should do the job:willy_nilly:

We need to get a set of wets (1A) tyres, first.

Just get him some benzo's mate, that will relax him nicely.

When do you guys expect to be ready to compete in this?

We're ready now. Still got some plans and changes for the car to be done, but it's all go. Alan's new helmet came last week and we should be getting his new race suit in a week or two.
