It's just getting started here.

Wow really you'll be surprised how many people have either visited or actually live here that are on the forum. With all the work we have down here it's no longer my little West Texas town. It's actually very congested, business's are popping up like blue bonnets everywhere, if you go to a restaurant on a weekend your looking at about an hour and a half wait. But it's a good thing people are making money and spending it. Helps the economy.

Off topic, but is Dennis the Menace park still there in Midland? I can remember being there one time when I was very young. probablly well over 40 years ago.

I was thinking of selling my wheels and tires for a set of 16's for some drag radials

16" and drag radials.....

First thing: Good luck getting 16's to fit over the front brakes..... Secondly, drag radials would be a terrible idea for autocross, as those are made to have sidewall flex in order to get better reaction on launch. You want stiffer sidewalls to have a more rresponsive feel while cornering.

Dzel · 04-21-2013, 06:41 PM

No those would be for the drag strip dogs any one know the smallest wheel we can put on?

cossie1600 · 04-21-2013, 09:02 PM

Probably 18 and 17 for the sport brakes and 17 16 on the base?

Dzel · 04-21-2013, 09:16 PM

17's sound like a good number

Sh0velMan · 04-22-2013, 08:01 AM

You have the worst automotive ADD of anyone I've ever seen. Good God.

Edit: Also, you're waiting to autocross until you get a twin turbo kit?

You'll probably never even get into boost on a typical SCCA autocross course... And even if you do, you won't have the rubber, brakes, suspension or experience to handle the speed your turbos will be giving you.

Wo wo wo there guy I will not be installing the TT kit till early next year. Once I do that to the drag strip we go. So yeah I would like to have a little fun with MY car as I see fit. If I want to run it on drag strip I can do that, if I want to road race, autox, or even just let it sit in my garage that's my buisness. I am very excited about trying out new things, especially since for the past 10 years I've been working 18-20 hours a day for weeks at a time with 1 day off in between. I've moved into a cushy office position now Monday thru Friday. So now me and my family can spend time together and I can join them in their passions and them in mine. So basically what I'm saying if you do not like what I'm putting down unsubscribe there guy.

Cool story, bro.

Dunno why you went all ragey there. Do whatever you want, just observing that what you say you want to do changes with almost every post. You also said you were waiting to do an autocross event until you get a delivery date from GTM, so that's where the other comment came from.
