[Fot] Tires again, Herald based cars

[john preston]

Steve,
 I have been running the Hoosier Street td since I was a newbie with great
results on my spit and my gt6.  They have lasted a long time with moderate
wear as I am not at the front of the pack.  I have also been using the Toyo
Proxis r888 with similar results.  The Toyo has a nice tread pattern that runs
well in the rain eliminating the cost for a second set of tires.  Both have
been predictable as far as when they break free as long as both brands are
warmed up first.
