plus the sooner you wear them out the sooner you can replace them!
Quite - in fact the T1R could be the tyre of choice their this weekend so perhaps not a disadvantage!

I doubt that's true.
Assuming the S1 only has the 170bhp engine and weighs say 800kg (no idea what they weigh so I'm assuming slightly heavier than an S1 Elise) that's 212bhp/ton. An S2 Exige weighing 900kg (and that's probably optimistic) comes in at 210bhp/ton. Bump the S1 up to 190bhp and it's 237bhp/ton.
