they arent even matching brands, the fronts are the same, but the rears are different on each side and different to the fronts so it could be entertaining. I won't have nearly the same grip as i'm used to..... it'll be intresting, thats for sure.....

Sounds familiar - last year at Elvington I had two Nankangs on the back ( so hard they barely wore at all ), 1 Bridgestone Potenza and 1 Rainbow ( no, I'd never heard of them before either ) on the front. Had a lot of fun though

If anyone here actually *lives* in Wales, you would know not to trust what any website/tv programme says, you look at the orientation of the sheep, and whether the cows are lying down or standing up!
BBC said to us light showers last saturday night, look what ensued:

Surely the orientation of the sheep depends on the position of the nearest Welshmen?

Yep that first one is the circuit - the second is a picture of RAF Valley, which is about 10 miles to the North West of the Circuit.
Here's another Google Earth view of the circuit, showing RAF Valley in the background :
