Cheers Cajun!! I got your tires, I'll PM KK now about the front.
Mmmmh, maybe it's good that it's going to be wet, I don't want me set of SC1s to finish too quickly. This will be the first time I'll be having the SC1 rear. Should be fun.

I already gonna be in auckland tues/wes next week, and then all week 25-29 so can't come up on the 23th i have to wait until they re open, hence reason i wanted to sell the super corsas, i wasn't gonna get a chance to use them on track so might as well go to someone who can use them.

Wet weather is always a pain, however I'm glad my I scrubbed my tires in last wknd :2thumbsup only to lose it on a corner........There's a message in there somewhere. No damage but all good.
Anyway off track, the ponit of this post is.....will there be some sort of drying room for our WET gear?....Or will it be pull on the soggy rjay pants the next day.
