high speed courses specifically where you are able to get tire temps up...not the tight autocross 30 second courses.

and street legal so i can drive with them to the track.

TIA

Default I have a set of 16" for sale, with wheels.

I think Jyoteens are 17 or 18". If you have an S4, get his, if you have an A4, get mine.

Default how are you Morgan? How's the Miata?

I'm suffering major track withdrawal. It seems there are less and less DE's this year. Hmmmm. Gonna score a house and a Miata very soon myself.

Default The trouble with scoring a house...

is that you spend the first half of the year (and lots of money) remodeling instead of racing.
The Miata is fine, has a nice "new" motor after Laguna, but hasn't seen any racing this year, only a few DEs.

Default yeah. I'm trying to get a house that doesn't need that remodeling.

besides, I'm a lazy bastard.
