horrible....I now know why I crashed in Jan, my ET Streets are done with. I need new ones.

I did 2 runs and had to get out everytime I hit 3rd because the car was ice skating...thank god to my new stiffer steering I was able to keep it under control.
Since these were my first pair of ET streets I didn't really know on how to check if they're still good or not....since they are pretty much bold to begin with. Someone at the track showed me how and he confirmed that they have seized to be useful.
I ordered a new set last night, should be here next week, even though I have a class I have to attend next thursday.

there is no 1/4 in Irwindale...if there are plans on making one I have not seen any construction site around there.

Fontana is supposed to reopen end of this month
