(we learn how to read tires in the pits when bored, really bored Jay)

I will put you in touch with my mates at Ohlins in Sweden. Please prepare $3,800 per wheel. This will save your tires on your upcoming and future track days

ps: I'd trade some tires regardless for a good track day, any days. Crappy Porsche suspension or not! Let's do this lolll
