Last drive.....

Interesting times ahead buddy. Looks like for now, you'll have to take the Aston 

[Steve J]

You should have popped up to Blyton for the afternoon to remind yourself what a sc honda is like to drive on track.

And you should stop being such a cheapskate and buy yourself a full set of ZZR's  

[Steve J]

Hmm

Are they better than R888R  then?

I like value.

Anyway different thread.

 Steve buy a set of ZZR's, it's a great tyre and having been a big fan of 888's its near as damnit if not better. I use them on the R300, superb mate.

:Lol

There may be some truth in that but I prefer to think of it as 'careful with brass'. Clearly my Yorkshire roots.

Oh FFS there was me convinced the ZZR had issues with not lasting that many heat cycles before going plastic as well as being more expensive than the R888R.

I do love the R888 compound, rated them better than the old AO48 I used to run, so others have said the R888R  is the same compound just different tread pattern. I'm still not decided

Buy a full set of ZZS. Virtually as grippy as ZZR on track and good on the road as well. Its what i would use if not sprinting.

You’ll be back Leigh, I remember selling my second S1 in 2004 (to buy a rather average Boxster, in comparison) and at the time I couldn’t imagine having another Lotus, I thought it was out of my system.  A ten year gap followed but 15 years later and I’ve had 3 more 😳

Enjoy the Aston, I must drive the 5 miles up the road to come and see it - not to mention the Stratos.....

Cheers Dave. You're always welcome to come round. I still haven't seen your Exige!
