nice, i'll have to do some research next time i need tires. i'll have more time to decide then. i get tires at cost so they'll be cheaper yet for me which is a plus now. i'll have to see what's out there, i'm just lookin for somethin that'll hold up well in the corners. i don't like to have much flex in the sidewalls

nice pics and vid of the hill climb too. looks like a good time. turned out to be a nice weekend for that

Yeah its beat up, only because it gets driven...hard

lol
Hill climb took the car 3rd and 6th fastest

the weekend before the hill climb kevin took 3rd in class (and won $100) at the Dog daze Rally Cross.

Took 1st in class at the COM Autox at DCTC the weekend before that.

and it runs a 12.9 at BIR

IT needs valve seals pretty bad, and paint a minor body work.. but it sure is a fast car,

Kevin has been racing since he could drive. Took championship in ice racing, Rookie of the year, multiple rally x wins/champions.. blah blah blah.. ****** has a lot of trophies...

that car with better suspension and less weight with him behind the wheel would be killer..
right now its just ksports and a rear sway bar with Star specs..

I hear star specs get greasy after they heat up some...so I may get nt05's and see how they do, their cheaper anyway but ya over 1/2 the people there ran star specs. my tires sucked donkey nut sacks...just spun alllllllll the time. otherwise the car handled good.

What do you want for it? Ill check the classifieds if its in there. I know you got a tvs.


The culprit was a wire loom pinched in the tranny case under the oil cooler? behind the bleeder valve. I was just about to start yanking everything apart but I had the fuse box off and I could see alot better. It was an easy fix when I found it. Lesson learned.

I haven't posted anything yet. I'd like 14000 as is. Maybe 12500 unmodded. Either way i'll re-tune for premium pump gas. It's set up for E85 right now. Unless you have someone that's interested in having it set up for E85. The current setup right now is money. Runs so well.

36000 miles on it now. PM me if you have an interest and I can get you a list of what all I have done to it. I can remove all or pieces of it if wanted.
