I guess my boss has never pushed his Ferrari 599 anywhere near the limits when he goes to the Elkhart Lake Ferrari every summer. That car is roughly 3700lbs with 600+ horsepower so I'm wondering if it would chunk the tires at 9 or 10/10ths too.

Do you think the Rival S tires would improve those numbers, Mark?

This makes me wonder, what kind of numbers did Hellfire generate once it was dialed-in?
