we can bring some bags of ice next time and lay it on the intake tube before we race. I doubt it will work but hey, gotta try something. J/K by the way.

my best was 14.2 with a 2.1 60ft....

bradley. man, that sucks i didn't make it.. i actually fell back asleep for a few hours after i talked to you.. Saturday was a long day for me.. when is the next event?

where did you find the pics? are those from other racers that were there? Anymore pics coming out later? So.. when you say "track" wheels for sale.. which wheels are you talking about? I need to sit down and chat with you.. i want to get some rims that would be good for both autox and drifting... and then i need to know what kind of tires i need for both...

maybe this week we can meet up and have a brewsky.. bring your cocky little bro along as well.. lol

i swear when we ran last night he yawned when he passed me...

I would probably be better and cheaper on tires if you get 17s to drift, Will.

That's cool with me Will just give me a call and we can set something up. Those pics were posted on nosr by another novice driver. Benson will be posting pics of today when he gets a chance. I'm not sure if he took any pics from yesterday, but they'll be better than those. I need to sell my stock ray's wheels.
