70 mph today in the rain on the localDual carriage way, the back tyre decides to orbit and sent me sideways - litterally.

suprisingly though the car didnt roll andit easily pulled back in line.

I love the williams, if that had of happened in my old Jaguar S Type im sure id of been smacked i nthe face by an airbag or two after rolling it.

scared me quite a bit mind you, but every day since buying the williams it suprises me a little more.

love the little beastie

thought id share that with you all


happy new years

lucky man

tbh ive played with death using my tyres i have £19 from new budgets on the pro races atm just to get it road legal (at the time was just needed) and been doing 150mph top speed runs hitting limiter in 5th lol...

speed rating on them is like 80mph or something...

Wont be doing that again now!!!

H - rating 130 mph (illegal for the wily/16v as they are lower than release)

v - rating 150 mph (correct rating for the car)

what the hell have you got on?! lol

Remoulds are class though.

Low grip = fun with the back end on roundabouts ;)

Done similar lol.

After i got an RSI engine into my R5 campus I drove Glasgow to Aberdeen at 90-100mpg on the old, cracked originals...145/60/13s with 100mph-odd rating.

They lasted tho but these didn't;

4 part worns off ebay for 60quid to go on my last clio...blow out on the way to MOT station! Stuck the spare on then got busted for a new tyre as the profiles didn't match.

Learnt my lesson...avoid shit rubber!
