====================
If you do put street tires on the back of a FWD car you'll end up getting a
little bit o heat into the rear street tires since the car will want to
slide out constantly. Could be fun though. ;^)

======================
Yet another reason to run harder compound tires such as my Toyo RA1s. I
don't hink that they'll ever really wear out. They'll just turn to stone
after a few years.
See you on course.

Take a ton of bolt and steel
A whole lotta sweat, a set of wheels.....On the Speedway.
The flag is down, pistons pound
Plenty of engines ripping around......On the Speedway.
