My bad. I thought they were naturally aspirated. As far as I know, all cars were limited to 200TW tires.

Though I wonder... did he have slicks on? or at least R compound street tires? I noticed no one else had them (or at least I didnt see any). I mostly saw the Muscle cars with Eagle KDW 2's. Which at least to my knowledge, aren't R-Compound, or DOT Race tires.
Honestly I was expecting to see some Toyo R888's! Though I don't know if they're any better/worse.. I just remember seeing a lot of guys running them in AutoCross when street legal tires with specific wear ratings were required.
But hey, what do I know? I just own a supercharged truck now. I can't turn!
