Haha yup,that messed me up several times till i figured ima give u enough space to take the corners easy. I experienced the same thing when i went to the anderson loop run with my stock wheels on my left front,man it was horrible taking turns with them and my shitty tires.

Really Nice Pics. Looks like you guys had a nice meet. Wish I could have made it.

Emanual, I want to forget about that day at the track. I could not get off the line with my bald a** tires, and was loosing the rear on the 1-2 shift. Put Michelin Pilot Sports on the next day ($2200!). It's amazing how bad you can make a 6-speed Vette look when you have bald rears.

We should have a track meet at HRP. Anyone down next week?

Justin/Nauman it's dirt cheap to run. $15 bucks for unlimited runs all night. But, you have to wear a helmet if you run 13s or better. Helmet rental is another $10 if you dont have one.

Friday sounds good if everyone is down. Nauman, i must have missed your text. Justin, Nauman, Mario and whoever else is down....lets do this.

I will tell you guys, HRP takes a bit of practice to get good runs in. Sticking the launch is the key.
