word.

so, what type of tires are you throwing on the new wheels?
when i was at firestone on friday, i was told two of my tires are legally bald.
i got order a set.

I'm just having the Falken's pulled from these.. I'm sure they'll give me s**t over the camber. I might try and see if I can bother one of my friends that works at a Firestone to do them for me or atleast talk them into it. Only issue is that he works out in the burbs.

None of my tires are at the tread wear bars though..

the car look sick man so did you notice a huge improvement on your handling compare to your old setup?

Right off the bat, there's a huge difference between these and the ksports. I've gone over some pretty big bumps and its a minor inconvenience, nothing back breaking. Handling is great, I just need the alignment and I'll be set.

Was there this weekend and it blew away my indoor karting experiences. I have not run Melrose grand prix... but this was basically a configurable outdoor roadcourse. With banking/elevation/gators and all.

It was worth the little 1hr trip for me (45min to melrose park) to norway, il.

I might have to buy a kart in a few years now...

Nah, didn't have my camera charged.....

And it was only me n Jay so no one had a camera.

Only 26 cars, we got to do like 17 runs, the coarse was soo much fun, I pretty much maxed it out, found the perfect line for every curve and set up the tranistions seemlessly.

I was 2/10ths of a second from an AP2 w/the same tires as me

August 21st when the next Tirerack meet is, we'll need to get the addy of the place before we go incase Anfrey can't wake up again

 

[hkt03]

That's a long ways away, I was thinking before then.. I don't mind the drive as long as the car is functioning properly lol

I didn't bring my lunch, I don't know where I'm going. Wherever it is, I have to make sure I can get into the parking lot
