I would think that one might wind up with snap oversteer here, like the original Mangusta.
I'd be afraid to push the car at any speed.
Yes Doug, you would want to redo your alignment, and most probably suspension. But as far as handling, if done right the car will be just fine. I'm a performance driving dummy, but last year at Spring Mountain I had Charlie Puckett, who owns a track dedicated Pantera, take 2511 for a couple of laps. He returned with big thumbs up for handling, steering and braking. He called the car a 'temptress', meaning it was just begging the driver to go for a little more. THAT is what got me into the infamous tree.
2511 steers straight as an arrow, one finger control, at 125mph and is a joy to drive. But suspension is seriously improved by Quella and properly aligned. If you go the big tire route, bear in mind other improvements will be called for.
