In terms of tires tho, I would say for whom ever is driving the car, buy 1 tire (since its a group community car, we'll need 4 drivers).

can i sign up for the driver list. maybe we can all now afford to buy one rally tarmac tyre.

My brother did that with his hatch as a weekend street and track car. He'd beat all kinds of muscle and turbo cars. H22 with about every imaginable bolt on, ignition and bored and cammed head. For what it was that thing was really fast.
