    As much as I can see the overall width playing a role I think the width of the tires is a bigger concern.  My example:  I think I am going to run an MRRC Porsche 904GTS which is a very narrow car and is much narrower that the Fly 911 I was going to run.  Even with the narrow width of the Porsche 904GTS I can still mount 10mm wide tires front and rear using a 3D chassis and CB Design wheels.  I believe these wider wheels/tires on a narrow chassis will be the best of both worlds and be hard to beat.

    We might want to take a look at the old Mille Miliga rules from 2012.  The rules stated that the widest tire you could use was 9mm with either a 22mm or 20mm diameter.  This alone could do a lot to level the performance.  NSR make a selection of 8mm width tires that we could look at using for this series.

    The rules for the 2012 Mille Miliga were very simple.  I have them below for review.
