    Yeah he did give him a push out the way: You can see the bumpers been slightly loosened, not sure if it cause any more damage as I didnt get a chance to look.

    Doesnt look right "gripping" especially with the drift rims on the back.

    Wasn't this for sale a while back?

    Maybe new owner wants to grip race?

    Why run skinny stock S14 rims on the rear when racing? Bizzare.

    I presume it was some sort of organised HM Forces track event judging by the RAF Reserve and Royal Navy stickers on some of the cars in the pics

    Judging by things I have seen for sale recently. I am guessing the 14 rims have cut slicks on them...

    Its a lot cheaper to get Motorsport tyres for the stock s14 wheels and even those will give a shit load more grip than even good tyres on wide wheels.

    But given the fact its been beaten by an old 406 I'm guessing the wheels had stock tyres on too.

    Geldy lost some of his wheels off the trailer on the way down from Scotland and put out a last minute request on Facebook. He was looking for 18" because thats what tyres he had. These wheels and shit tyres must have been the best he was able to get at no notice. I think it's awesome that he's doing some racing.

    The 406 could have anything/anyone under it - doesn't mean a thing that it's going past.
