Gary has full racing Avon wets. Way way way softer than anything road legal. I run Michelin wets that the Porsche GT Cup cars use.

Have a look online as to what size tyres are available in your size. Lots of ex race series tyres are mega cheap. Circa

What amazes me is how effortless the power delivery seems. It accelerates like a scalded cat out of the bends but watching the dash it doesn't look like your are hammering it.

was only running 1.3 bar boost, higher boost tripped noise limits

lol, your car is the indicator inducer !! .. everyone indicates when you appear!, I was gutted from the vids that the GT3 didn't go up against you. Would be awesome to see the difference between the evo and a GT3 and R35

Oh and of course, 2.2 bends pipes

Yeah, a few times now Ben- hence why I was happy to let everyone else have a sample first.

Still impresses from the passenger seat though.
