So you thought you had wide tyres?

Now, what size arches am I going to need to squeeze a set of these under them?

 

 

Oh and here's the car they come from, an 800bhp V8 New Zealand Sprint car that races on a 1/4 mile dirt oval, unfortunately the owner crashed it the night before I arrived at his place so I couldn't get a photo of the complete car

 

 

An earlier incarnation didn't fare well in this clip either!

No, that was an earlier crash. Makes it sound like he's not much of a driver, but in truth he's one of the best in New Zealand (Jamie McDonald)

 

Here's the car post crash, doesn't look like there's much damage, but when you look closely all that's salvageable is the engine and a few bits and pieces, the axle, diff and steering rack were all completely shot, and the chassis is quite badly twisted.

 

 

In answer to the last question mate it's fabulous, and almost as big as the UK with only 4 million people there! Over the next 12 months or so there shall be discussions about us emigrating there. My Wife was born there so already has a Kiwi passport and that helps.
