Thats cheap, we run 195/60/14 on the turbo rollas and a huge 185/0/13 on the NA rollas.

A few guys run 245/50/18 and their 450 a pop

We are due for new tyres on the turbos mainly rear, 450nm blow the rears off even in 4th gear. The plan is change fronts to the back, new fronts for practice and qualifying, then new tyres front and rear for the races and hopefully have a few decent spares if we get some flat spots. If we need more the cheque book comes out. Found out Yokohama will be there to support the IP guys with tyres now

We have booked into Orange as Bathurst City has no accommodation which is a pain as its 50 kays away. We were thinking of camping but if the weather turns nasty we dont want to risk it
