We at Xfactory don't "shit" belts. Yes i wore out loads of pulleys at the euros apart from that no, i don't remember replacing stuff because its worn out.

I used full throttle the other week at southport, only for a second though, i had to lift off for the corner. Oh and i didn't actually feed the power in until i was on the astro

I wonder if i would be quicker if i took a slice of the crisis management style from tomcock

what size you on g?195/65/15,205/55/16,215/50/17,215/35/18,225/40/18 or what?worked for a tyre wholesaler for 17 years.need to know correct size,speed/load index.you dont need reinforced tyres as they are too hard and it will handle like a pig.it may be worth considering a directional tyre to aid response in wet conditions.uniroyal have recently released the rain expert range,reasonable price and a sexy bit of rubber if you are into that sort of thing.call me and we can have a lengthy discussion about your needs.my time and advice is free and i can point you to a few garages that will look after you.many thanks Jez-trackside support,tea maker,tuck shop and tyreman!!!!:thumbsup :
