Default vids from 09/23/2006

Here are your vids. I had a great time at the track. We were all hiding in our cars so the sand wouldnt blast us, but still cool to hang out. See you guys next time.

I would love to have a near sea level track close by, like some people.
Where did you run?

The thing is I only have the stock 18's... i think they weigh similar to my volks.

I'm thinking about buying some cheap 15's or 16's or something and getting DR's... the only thing is my roommates are gonna kill me for keeping wheels in the living room all the time lol
