Wow, that tire is not getting patched, how far did you drive on it to make it look like that?

I drove a little over a mile under 25 mph to get to a safe spot. I run around -2.5* camber in the rear which helped rip it up a bit. I knew the tire wouldn't be repairable anyway, but didn't want to ruin the rim, so I took it easy on the shoulder. Looks like the tires when they flat them in F1!

I think the Fabspeed pipes area great investment in sound and perhaps HP, though I have no evidence of that. It did take significant weight off the rear and did I mention the sound?
