EDIT: Aren't A6s auto-x tires? I want something that will last a little bit.
Car made 307 rwhp and 297 rwtq. The limiting factor is the FMS shorty headers... they suck, but they fit w/o having to make custom headers and fab new side-pipes. True LTs would be worth 20 horse/torque easily.
Best thing... it weighs 2571
Will make a thread when I get updated pics of it.

I've gotten my A6's from him since From what I hear, some guys use them for qualifying or for one event on track and chuck em.
Since they heat faster than the R6, but in turn don't hold up as well.
I paid $322 for each rear A6 ( 315-30/18 ) new, and got TWO of the same that look like 80% tread left for $160 total.
Now only if they could find me the fronts I'd be set.

I'm going to try and learn this car now w/ it's new goodies and go to comp school.

It is listed as 275/45-17's but I believe they are actually 275/40's:http://www.nasaforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=26558
