Hmm I'll look into those tires

What about the yoko advan s.4 & advan sports ??

The advan A046 I loved and I looked around this morning online and didnt see that size either

Just because the 80's F1 cars were running 1600 hp, doesn't mean that's the same motor that is currently being run.

yah i see what you are saying about the ams car but i was just posting that up there to show you that some vendors know what they are doing. and my point was that if that was a real f1 car it would have probably blown away the star mazda or whatever it was racing, it probably wasn't as fast as it was in its prime
