Yeah, I know all about that. My best friend has a SFWD car and his motor let loose at MIR last season. He's jumped up from a stock trans to another gearbox which I dont wanna name currently and 26.5s.

He tore the 24.5s down the track. If they were 15inch slicks, I'd get the 24.5s from him. A 500whp car don't tear up slicks like ya'll big boys.

My car sits broken all the time... is it a race car :P

Also, next season. Ima look around for your car at events, I'd like to drop by and say hello.
