Doesn't need to be road legal. Just slap street tires on the FV and win another jacket.

Wow, I missed a good STM discussion while in England (forum seems to block addresses from there?). Anyway, I'm still on the fence this year about what class ... but if Dave is running STM also, then it probably makes sense for me to also... although I hope you aren't serious about not running if I do Chris :(.

If you run 300+ treadwear streets you MIGHT not kill the class :wink:

380 treadwear will work, should be fair (and running them for a few events will vastly improve your car control.. or kill you :wink: :rockon: )
