Surely a lightweight sportscar with heritage would be better round an autotest track than mine.
Use your own

Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

Seriously - i put 45psi (coldnt make myself put more in) and by the end of the day (half of which i'd spent "practicing" handbrake turns) the tyres looks a wee bit scrubbed but other than that were fine.
