S1 tire choices
Can you tell me which tires you are using on your S1s and what you think of them? I need to get tires and expect to use the car as a driver with only an occasional track day. Thanks, Mark

Re: Fuse values
Mark, British (Lucas) and American (Buss) fuse ratings are NOT the same. The Lucas 35 amp fuse is roughly equivalent to a Buss 17 amp fuse. DO NOT put an American Buss 35 amp fuse in... that
