yes, the lot(s) here are very small, so don't get your hopes up for Adesa or something like it. I just thought I would let everyone know about the last race of the year. Considering my girlfriend lives in Chattanooga - that has a lot of my justification for me racing since I have a place to stay and...

I wasn't at the event, but I just looked at the results and there were several cars that didn't run - including Jon Coatney in the Mazdaspeed Miata.

The loudest car I can think of this year as at the first event at Adesa and a white 3 series BMW w/ side graphics - he was freaking loud. He isnt a regular is he?

Question - does the bolt screw into a threaded hole in the body/frame, or is there a nut on the other side?

I would say you have two options. 1.) Buy an energy suspension sway bar bushing - they are cheap 2.) Place a small piece fo steel between the current bracket and the bolt head/washer connection. Most likely the steel will be harder than the metal used from the factory and it won't distort when torqu...

Derek, I have a two used V710's (225/50/16) that I will sell to you for $75.00. There is still a good amount of tread on them. Enough to last at least the rest of the season. Let me know if you want them. I know you are looking for a wider tire, but I think that these will give you better balance. ...

I should have stated in my first post that the rears are already spoken for. The last event I ran an R compound in the rear and it stuck like glue minus one corner. The fronts, now that they the weak link, are pushing the front end out when I enter a turn with decent speed. I was hoping a better gri...

Questions on Autocross tires for 16" wheel.

I'm looking at buying the Kuhmo V710 or the Hoosier A6s for the front of the truck. They will be mounted on a spare set of ZQ8 16" x 8" wheel just like the wheels already on the truck. I'm having problems on deciding on which brand and size to go with. Right now I run a 245/50 front and re...
