First drive on ns2r tyres
Got a good spin out today, out to Squires Cafe with 2 friends on bikes. Car felt diabolically fast. Kept up with a 600cc bike of the line, but was
just crazy faster through roundabouts.
Only surprise was pulling into a layby to pour the Jerry can in, and finding that my rear storage box had fallen out and was sat on the axle! Given
that it felt like about 15kgs, it won't be getting refitted! I reckon I'll take the seats out for foam and put storage in the footwell,
allowing space for a bigger tank. I'm nearly always alone in it anyway...

Oh yeah, I shudder to imagine how fast ar1s feel in corners. I mean, it was wild already.

How big is your current tant if you're having to to up while out.
If the 2 lcb's I know of who are running AR1s are anything to go by, they're next level grip wise. Very similar to r888r.

Tank is probably 25 litres - the actual problem is the bend in the filler neck that makes it a nightmare to fill from a pump. So I just fill a Jerry
can, and it pours in much faster! No the box isn't in the way, I'll get a straight hose for it!

I think a lot of people find that with fillers in the back panel of 7's.
