I was just funnin you guys, I actually don't know a thing about the f1 stuff 
but I trust you.  I think it's rather obvious that the explorer deal was a 
combo b/c just like you got 40 trillion miles out of your firestones on a diff 
car so did explorer drivers do fine on different tires, that was sort of a 
perfect storm of combined circumstances I think.
But either way I was just bored.  Hey don't listen to me about tires, I have 
Geostar DarkHorses on my focus (and on the garage floor, I CAN"T stop lighting 
those things up on the way in.  Whoever gave me a forty foot deep garage with 
glass smooth concrete wanted to see a car in the dining room)
