you should be fine. if they ask you about them tell them there cheater slicks. if you do get new tires my suggestion would be falken zx ze 912's. thats what i use and they've lasted for a while plus the do pretty good on the track.

I stuck around for most of the first heat then left, but It seemed like good times. I'll definately have to try it when the next one comes. Not so much fun just watching by yourself. It was time well spent to get an idea of how the event operates.

Are the courses always so basic? Not saying it is easy to turn a fast time, but I was surprised at the layout. Always expected more turns.

I saw you leaving, nice car.

Not to be too critical but the courses seem to be rather uninspired lately. Pungo courses are usually more technical and don't consist of double figure 8's. I may try to help out by designing a more suitable course, hopefully I'll have time. 45 cars, give or take took all day, thats just not right.

Pungo used to be but they were 40 second runs. You can get super long runs at ACU-4 for the same price so i think they went with the two lap, 'circle track' style courses to offer more value.

If you want to see a technical course - check out Little Creek's setup on the 17th. Make sure you're on the access list so you can get on base (if you can't already).


edit: man i really should take off those springs.. PAX is killing me for moving to Street Prepared.... i just can't stand the wheel gap

Yesterday was such a good day. The car is finally set up perfectly and it showed. I still need to teach my dad how to drive.
