Hyperion - is the team i work for Rob!!
CR500 tyres in the dry are meant to be run the wrong way as helps grips and tye wear!
James - well who knows, were going for GT's in 2007 and ive been given the job of sorting the drivers and budgets for it. A very large task but if i pull this off then who knows!
