    SL V8 RWD Owners... is it safe to floor it?

    @ChrisMisc I had problems with my SL55 in the dry, i managed to fix by ditching the Pirelli P1's, i can't believe how shite they were, they were not even 50% worn, second mod was a Quaiffe LSD, that was a game changer, it's so much better

    Good Year or Bridgestone

    Agree, Asymmetric 6's are so so good. I use them on my track car in the wet, so much grip and they are also good on a dry track, They are also used for me to drive to and from the track and all the other stuff, i will be fitting them to my SL55 if i can get the right sizes .

    It was diagnosed by a local indy, he had a tool that he plugged the optical cables into to find the fault.
