Yikes!
Since they won't be available in the 18" sizes he needs until June, a local A-stock competitor is planning to run 275-40-17 710's on the rear of his car, and Victoracers on the front. He believes it'll be 1-1.5 seconds faster than his current all-Ecsta setup.

The tall, wide, and sticky rear tire can only help the short-geared and tail-happy 04 S2000...

I'm actually codriving shaggy's (Andy Howe's) car this year, but if people are interested in driving my car (others have asked) and can get it to Topeka, I wouldn't be averse to that idea.

Did I read somewhere that Hoosier requires 5 cars, not drivers, to be considered a class for a Pro? If so, we've got only 4 cars, and the Pro is 2/3 full. We need one more! Andy, Stephen, why aren't you guys sticking around for another week?

Lack of time and money, and an unwillingness to subject the car to the abuse of being dual-driven at a Pro.

Steve, if I didn't know better, I'd think all those excuses of yours are borrowed from someone else . Bring your own car. Leave it here, and I'll get it to Topeka for you in September...
