Default Thanks to Z Car Garage

and Rob for fixing me up with a new set of Drag Radials for winning their drag series at Infineon. Barely beat Sean, Bruce, Alvin (in his wind-up Hong Kong knock off Datsun), Peter, Eric, Josh and the rest of the ZCG regulars. It wasn't decided until the very last night. there are some very fast Z's and G's being run out there.

Check them out some time.

Walt,
Congrats on the new tires! Do you need an extra set of rear rims for the drag radials? I have 2 rear wheels w/ 50% tread on them...

Well all you guys are hard to beat and I think I was pretty lucky to win. I only beat Corsair (Sean) by one win. Sean has a new motor now.

Starting to take off on the first yellow light and not waiting until the third helped me a whole bunch

Peter: Thanks, but I already have them mounted on my old wheels.

Congrats Walt! I think it's cool that you linked your burnout/race in your signature
I actually let you guys win because there are no 195/50/15 drag radials in existence!
The "Wind-up Hong Kong knock-off Datsun" will have boost soon, so watch it!

Thanks for taking those clips. got lots of comments about Rob yelling during the burnout.
Maybe bald moped tires would work as slicks on the Datsun. Are you putting one of those cool electric fans in front of the intake?
