T1-Rs at 4mil G, but having different boots front-back didn't really help me on track. the Bridgestones (as you may have seen from my other thread) are at 3 mil all 4 corners, so at least with all 4 wheels the same I'll get consistency on track. to put brand new T1Rs on the front, with 4mils on the back woiuldn't have solved the problem either
Only issue is, if I get them to KH, ... where/when am I gonna get 'em fitted

sheesh - who'd book on for a trackday..

I know what you mean Greg but back in the day I ran different tyres on the front than rear. IN actual fact it was TT05.
But hey, if it's gonna be hot and you're fitting T1-Rs they will melt anyway...

Neil - I'll be impressed if even you manage to keep up with a well-driven GT2. That's the 450bhp twin-turbo one, yeah? Not the N/A GT3's you've been hounding across europe
Still, more chance at KH than the likes of Spa.

DOH. the probblem is most of them arent well driven.
I.E i reckon i'd be quicker in a 911 GT3 RS than i am in the lotus, but most people who have 911's cant drive. just my opinion. and obviously i dont include shoomer in that statement

Mac DDTB Zippy Lazydonkey,
What time are you guys leaving tomorrow 10ish?
Shall we convoy? meet at mine / Mac's then pick up Iain at Cumbernauld @ 10.15-30?
Best if DDTB goes at the back in case any bits fall off!

If you're not living on the edge you're wasting too much space!
