JK’s No Limits and 172 tyres.

[geordiepaul]

Just bought Jeremy Clarksons No Limits and it pretty good.

There was the bit with the 172 (in red, looked very very nice) they had Jonathan Palmer driving round a track with 3 different sets of tyres. The standard one, some remoulds and some performance tyres.

The performance tyres were a second quicker than the standard and the remoulds were slower. I think the peformance tyres were Yokohama AVS Sport.

Just goes to show what difference a tyre can make!

I reckon they were goodyear eagle GSD3s!!!!

The 700bhp RS200 is crazy followed by the 1000bhp skyline (if only i had £50000!!!!)

Me and Roamer were watching it in my car the other night!!!!!!

They definately werent goodyears! The tread split in the middle whereas the goodyear flows right round the tyre.

Had a look around and this is the one...

1000bhp in a Skyline was a bit mental, oh and did I mention how good that 172 looked

The exhaust on it sounds shagged though

(sorry, you were right about the tyres, doh!!!)
