I ran into Mark at Milan on Friday. He truly has a gorgeous setup. He was also very down to Earth and open about his combo and gave me some good tips for tire/wheel options on my car as well as trans options.

Yep, Hinzman went 7.24 (faster than I have ever been anyway)

I am pretty sure Hinzman won the whole thing again... he is still points leader and really is the fastest car in the class by a long shot.

His car has been 6.9x@200+

As long as it is me and him, I have to hope for him to mess up. Once we get the new setup together, I will hopefully be more competitive.

Tough luck Mark, wanted to come out friday but in the middle of doing a complete suspension overhaul on the formy so I kept wrenching instead.
Whats the plan to get the 30's to fit or are you just going to work on dialing in the 28's instead?
