does that setup not hurt you in autox? may be of relevance or not but even cars lapping tsukuba around 1 min mark are running 235 and 245 f/r. just a thought. because wider is not always better. spreading the weight too much can hinder the handling.

in autox, bigger is definately better, until you cant get heat in the tires.
in my case, i had trouble putting power down in 2nd with 285's all around, so i upped the rears to 315's. cant fit any more tire in front with these fenders, so they stayed.
look at any fast autox car- they all have giant tires.
on track you dont generate nearly as much heat, and rolling friction is a bigger issue, so bigger isnt necessarily better. tire choice depends on a pile of factors. AFAIK, all time attack cars have limits on tire width and compound

Not pretty, but she gets around.
While not as nicely built as Andy's cars, here is my FC. She's 2400# and 160rwhp of wholesome track goodness.
