Some footage here if you are bored.....

Asked the guys if they wanted me to film them from behind....starts off slow, but pics up nicely, especially the 2nd

You are quick! That white 6RS in front of you isn't slow either. Wonder what kind of tires he's also on.

Yes they are, even more pronounced feeling then RA1's which I was shocked about... First day on them at the track was a weird feeling, felt like the car had crazy body roll but the tires just gripped through the tilt, as the tires started to wear in it got better but still there.. Pressure also make a huge difference, suffice to say it takes a bit to find what works best but they are great when you get there.

I would love some high res pic's sent to my email dragon133@aol.com when you get a chance.

Videos are AWESOME, thanks for sharing!

Your pace on the last lap was outstanding! I'd love to go to Spa sometime soon.

He's a good driver, used to compete in Rallying.

He was running on the proper 18" Motorsport Cups, they are fantastic track tyres.
