OK!!!!!

i will say it once only.... evo mods are for evo's hahahahahah with that being said you can do it either way.... there are draw backs to both ways when doing a evomod... plastic dip i believe takes a light scuff sand correct? so sanding factory clear is not a good idea however when done right can be recoverable.... also from what i seen of the members who have done it with plasti dip i see the lines are very rough and unrefined... also it must be about 12 mils thick... hahhahaha

now a wrap.... there are few draw backs.... seams can be one of them depending on who installs and what it is.... the other is rock chips when only using the material with no lam.... ie premium flatblack, and the reason is coz of it being a flat color you cant just thow a lam over it... it will turn into gloss.... any fading or whitening you seein stripes due to the sun is only coz they use **** material or it is at least 6+ yrs old.... the bonuses are huge to me... one is no prep work, lines are cleaner, color options, thickness.... removal is about the same.... maybe favors vynyl a bit....

if it was me i would wrap.... your choice tho....

backinblack.... lol we met yet? i am mark... hahhaaha come see me when you do the graphics hahahaha also for your info i know mrd very well as most here know.... thx for giving us the 2 thumbs up even if i didnt do your car.... hahahha

one last thing i need to get off my chest..... I HATE ALL YOU AHOLES NOW DOING STUFF TO YOUR CARS... MAKING ME MISS IT!!!!

Plasti-dip requires no prep. Don't like it, peel it off - hence my reasoning for using plasti-dip.

Thedude, what time? I'd love to but I work every day. I get lunch from 12-1. And I'm off around six thirty.

Anyone going to race city Friday? I want to go.

getting there earlier is best;
this way you get the most possible runs, because generally it takes a while to get through tech, and even if it is crazy busy, this ensures you get your money's worth.

can you guys do me a small favor?
Can you at the least post up on who goes, and what e/t's you are able to pull off?
I figure it might be pushing my luck to ask that someone show up (like Mark - nudge, nudge) to record any passes...

I was thinking about seeing if Portland International Raceway is open for thursday or friday evening...

Steve mentioned it earlier, and (although their page sucks donkey-bawlz) I did find a single page that mentioned april 29th as the first secret street...

hmmm weird... I could have sworn I saw the 29th on the calender as being the first night...

if it's any consolation, it looks like I've got all rain in the forcast... so a jaunt down the 1320' @ PIR looks to be out of the cards...
