Was about to ask what tyres are on it?
What psi are in those rear tyres? Only the middle looks to be on the track.

around 26-30psi
the rear tyre is not flat in the 2nd pic as the NS tyres are loaded up on the corner. They also have a fair amount of Neg camber... so more of the centre and inside are in contact

I was thinking over inflated. But the Neg camber will explain all that. It's the outside where i can see daylight under it.

yup.... but the susp and tyres are fairly loaded as the corner is quite tight.... so i'd not be too alarmed if it wasnt running negative camber

the other extreme.... same corner, from the front, front view.

This is the dunlop BTCC slicks and prob dif susp settings... softer... plus its dry so more speed/load
A fair amount of tyre tuck on the loaded tyre

the tyres dont seem too bad in the wet.... and the TSC in the car means the car is quite adjustable to conditions/driving style.
