I think that is like a 265 on a 13" wheel or something ridiculous. The guy who I am supposed to run with won't be able to run too much of a stretch. None of the organizations will allow him to run an HPDE with extremely stretched tires....I know that for a fact. I haven't talked to him about it in a few months, but I might PM him this week to see what he wants to do.

How about this for a comparison...

275 hoosier A6 on a 6" wheel:


So a 10mm larger tire on a 7" smaller wheel lol.

if anyone has you have proven to me that driver + tires/alignment are worth more then power in anything besides a straight line.
(to a certain degree in both directions) but in a NA Z vs Stock Block Z 100% yes

When is this going down?

Id like to see this FI Z driver try to keep up.

Nothing humbles people like realizing they actually cant drive-the only way to realize that is to actually get spanked sometimes.

Yes, I mentioned above that he is TT.

Not entirely sure. I haven't talked to him in a few months. I'll probably PM him later this week to see what he wants to do.
