Mic, if you feel like driving up to Seattle to try Dirtfish, I'll give you a free place to stay. I've been wanting to give that place a try for a while and thought that maybe this summer, I'd bite the bullet and give it a go.

+1 Dirtfish is the place to go in the PNW!

Highly recommend Rally Ready in the Texas area and Team O'Neil in the Northeast as well!! All great choices

If I were up North, I'd totally be down for a ride-along! Looks like a great time, and certainly not something you see much in the Z community. Sub'd for more updates. Keep it up, sir!

Damn I thought you were going to say you got a rebuilt title car for cheap and gutted that bad boy...

I wouldn't have thought that 15 inch wheels would clear the brakes.

Keep updated me and the wifey would come check out a race, might even be willing to park my Z on a gravel parking lot haha

She wasn't cheap, I just got bored hahah

The good thing about Rally wheels is that they're designed for brake clearance! In theory, any 15" rally specific wheel (Braid, Team Dynamics) should clear. Decided to go with Method Race Wheels after hearing good things about them. Exact specs are 15x7, +15

You should definitely try to make it out!! The lots are usually pretty flat.

Made the first post more epic... Think we are going to get a used honda element this week... Make an awkward and epic rally car... Till it flipped over.
