Default PICTURES from my latest Track Day 'Down Under'....56K Beware!!

Please Note - these were taken with a 'disposible' camera (so excuse the 'graininess') & scanned onto CD by my photo shop in 2 resolutions (the 'lower' resolution looked crappy)!!

Hope you like them....

a little OT...

Do you have a roll bar in that R? If not do you still use the harness in the pics.

What do you mean by 'how' are they Michelin R compound....they just are?! Not sure of the model, but they're a '7' compound, which I believe is the softess.

They're actually off an Australian GTP class ITR, that was raced and won it's class in season 2000. I purchased them for AU$50 each (~US$28 each) off of the original owner of the car, who had retained them when he sold the car in 2001.

Was some of the BEST AU$200 I've spent on my car....they were AWESOME to drive on and I barely started to 'test' their limits (which are well beyond me @ this stage)!!

No roll-cage....why would I have the harness and not use it?!

Cheers for the compliment and yeah, they are a little BIG....but that's what 'broadband' is for!!

They do come in that color, just not in the US. The sunroof was a factory option in some countries.

It's a Milano Red ITR with an aftermarket sunroof.

Using a harness without rollover protection can result in death.

Are you sure it's an aftermarket sunroof? I was under the impression that sunroofs are a factory option overseas and down under... please correct me though!
