As for tires. I'm running the all seasons during the CTD event, but depending upon what wheel and tire deals pop up in the fs section over on NAGTROC or gtr forums. Other than that maybe new star specs or the rs3s. As Chu say, no sense in buying the best tires unless you is a true PRO.

$45, I've seen them f/s for that on here... if chu think you're going to get more out of me, your wrong. Even that is too high... I can't imagine you plan on paying that dude $200 anyways...

Haha, sounds like the debate I had with Nelson on here when NEMO took the 2012 WTA title and record by over 5 secs. The dang car is a tube chassis 4G63 powered car, that's it.

There are some changes to the rules for 2013. For the PRO class specifically:

"What we have done is put some rules in to stop the cars “growing any weirder, wider or larger”. We have also put some rules aimed at getting back to the original spirit of time attack racing. These rules will prevent the use of things like space frames get the cars back to looking like “true cars”. We have also put a minimum weight in for all vehicles."

WHY YOU GOTTA GET ME ALL FIRED UP NOW?

What are considered space frames? I thought all modern cars were considered to have space frames ever since the body was integrated with the chassis/frame.
