johnh875 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
The question has been asked (but not answered!) locally as to whether a car fitted with a space-saver spare tire would actually be road legal - due to mis-match in tire size, lack of stability under emergency braking etc.

I've never had an 'official' space saver tire (although have had 'original' size spare with wider road tires) and would not have one due to the speed and range restrictions - what are you supposed to do if you have a flat in the middle of a long trip at night time?
