If you think our sledging and insults are bad on rctech, you should read the 20+ emails we send to each other daily.

Take it all with a grain of salt mate...

well i've received a few insulting post from you lately, specifically on the mbank thread after i posted a "sledge" response to you, so i think you can understand where my chip on the shoulder comes from. If you don't remember the post you gave to me as a reply after one of my jokes to you, then go back to the mbank post and find a history of your posts...i'm sure you will agree that your response to me and your personal insults towards me were uncalled for and stepped over the line, from being sledges to being full blown insults. if you can't find it, i'll take time out to look for it and pm it to you

2. my car was good at the start of the final but then it just started hooking left to right in the middle of the corner. i pulled out of the race to see what was causing this and found that both rears were pealing off the rim and also one of the fronts had the same problem

has anyone else had these issues?

I have to say i have just inspected Johns tyres and yes the 1 pair of 37s measure at around 30. his 40s also measure around 45 plus, Other 37s35s were close.
I think that there are some packaging issues here and I have my theory.
My method of measurement is a bit Old School but never the less accurate.

Thomas shut up I can feel you itching to post something.
PS I was just geeing you up about the rims you take things too seriously bro,OMG.
