Mad Mike EP82 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Road tyres,semi slicks, full slicks???? Which tyres are you wanting. And your budget? For example R888 x4 195/50R15 = £500ish Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TimD Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 A lot of track day organisers insist on roll cages for slicks, something to keep in mind Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Hey Peter am i right in thinking you have a 4paw ? Be good to see some track vids when you get it out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K24_glanza Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Slicks sounds like a plan. Yeah got a 4 paw but she has been on a Trailer for almost 2 years as I moved in to a new house which needed loads of work and money but at least she never got sold. I wont be on the track till the summer but defo will get some vids up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Have you ever run slicks ? I have and quickly realised how scary that much extra grip was to handle.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
