Uuuh nice find . . hey I bought probably 20 sets of those rims for all my Volvos (yeah the ugly one . . I know I know .. ) you can have one of them . . .
20 sets? Were they having an end of season sale, or something???

Hmmm. I think we may have a problem here, considering what people were saying about the Saleen.
Saleen: If it can't be tuned it will never get any faster, which gives the other cars the advantage... Also if you had, say, a Porsche Carrera GT, one of the fastest cars on the road ever, are you
really going to tune it??? How many tuned Carrera GTs are there in the world, do you think? Who would tune a Veyron? I think keep the Saleen, there's no reason to bin it.
And the Ruf? Well it's not going to be banned, but what to do about the tuning level? I don't think the base tuning level really changes anything, or which options you can and can't have: as long as you go up in steps, I think it's fine. OK so it has an advantage, but it also has a some disadvantages: no turbo option; no wing option; less power than the Saleen, SLR, GT and Zonda (by quite a way, as it goes), slower than at least the GT by 6 secs, last time I looked. And bearing in mind these cars are its only competitors in the points competition (plus the NSX), it's going to suffer massively if you penalise it from the start, it'll never catch up. And if you think the Ruf has an "UNFAIR" advantage... BUY ONE!
There are many cars that have odd stock tuning levels: I don't want to have a list of rules for each and every car, I want the same simple rules for everyone: I say just go up in steps... Opinions appreciated, we'll see which way the wind is blowing.
