Get 27x10 (or .5) or 28x10 (or .5). You will likely be running out of gear on 26's and no reason not to go 10" width.

Alberto, it was nice to meet you. Zain, always good catching you down at the track. Having normal non-redneck people at the track to talk to makes the day more fun.

Alberto, thank so much for posting my second worst run of the day. I missed third gear--haven't done that since my first night drag racing the car a couple months after I bought it. My worst on Saturday was a 17.xx that I just abandoned the run after launching too high and lighting up the tires.

Let me know when you guys are heading to Cecil next. I'm planning on hitting a Weds night soon.

Forget dropping the youtube page, losing to the yellow Hyundai should ban Z Racer Shin from the forum...

I did not lose to the Hyundai, cause from what I remember, my time was actually better than his.

He just had a better R/T.

What's worse losing to a Sunday with an H in place of the S or a Honda.

Do you even race, Jeff?
Do you have any Timeslips at all?
Perhaps maybe some time attack times?

This was my VERY FIRST time at the track. Get off my dick.
