I decided to gatecrash the MR2 owners club meet at Bentwaters this weekend and figured I'd see how much rubber I could burn through:

Here's the movie:

How about a pictue of the tyres

Surprisingly enough, the P-zeros stood up to the abuse quite well.

From brand new, they're down to about half the tread depth.

Had it been Elvington, they would have been down to the canvas.

It's a shame they're not running Bentwaters any more.

Bentwaters

Nice one as usual Geezajob .

I take it then that Bentwaters is now closed ?

 

[geezajob]

Yeah, tree hugging do-gooders in the nearest (just built) village have complained about the noise..

(Overlooking the fact that it's an international airport, and that the trackday brings trade to the area)

 

[Paul.GTR34]

What a shame.

I was planning on visiting it soon again .

Do they have a 'replacement' venue at all ?

 

[Richie]

That was great, thanks!!

Nice!

Excellent pics / movies as usual David.

I'll be joining you in wasting some rubber as soon as I get hold of some standard 17" R33 rims, as I'm not so sure my bank balance can handle shredding a £800 set of 18" Bridgestones at each airfield day!
