Upgraded my licence from a speed licence(sprint events) to a race licence. Also picked up the control tyres. Yokohama 205/50/15 advan 050s the maximum width for under 2 lt cars. They look so cool. Will use tyres to lower the car to the minimum 100mm at the front and have a 2 deg rake from rear...

My only criteria is which one of these will improve my lap time on a mix of tracks (fast flowing, long straights with sharp...
