lol indeed, love this stuff. hmmm...some are saying that 10" is too wide for preservation of grip and at optimal temperature for the 265 so I wonder if the 9.5" would be more ideal. I took more measurements this weekend with the wheel fully cranked to one side and noticed the fender liner may need to be massaged a bit to fit a 275 at full crank...so since it is highly unlikely you'll be at full crank on the racetrack, it should be good. need to take more measurements to be sure.

On my way to Charlotte this past Friday, I stopped in Virginia to pick up my delrin subframe bushings from bimmerworld...Very cool place!. I also ordered some delrin bushings for the differential from Condor speed..I'm stoked to see the result.
