rob tried 6200 on the 2 step and it blew them off pretty hard...mt drag radials though 275/50/15...he probably needs to get a slick or et street for the m6 right?

right yeah but we almost got it down. my bog at my last good run was not as bad as any other run i ever made so its almost tuned in.

And my car was hitting so hard it was pulling my cat back and y pipe apart. and the clamp was as tight as it would go. But me and chrs1313 still have some things we are going to try with this setup of mine.

On the corner of monee-manhattan road and rt45 there is a grain place or something and you can park on the scale and look inside the window and it shows your weight. They leave it on all night.. lol and noone is there. I didnt have enough time to take anything out of the car. One day if your not doing anything Chris, Id like to see if you could give me a couple pointers on setting up my suspension. I know your car leaves pretty damn good, lol I've seen it and its a beast.

Yea i showed the scale to andrew a couple weeks ago we weighed both our cars. Its right across the street from the gas city. You have to go at night otherwise their could be people there. But yea you just pull up and you have to get out of the car and look at the screen through the window. I weighed 3500 with the new 17's and a stereo back in the car.

Yeah MT radials are not ment for the shock of a M6, the only one that is is the BFG. But you are 10x better off just getting stiff wall slick.

I actually have an extra set of 16in ET streets that i used to use when i was manual. I would be happy to throw them into the trailor and let anyone use them @ the track. I dont use them but cant seem to get rid of them. I'll be there again on saturday, and i'll just bring them with me.

on a side note.....it was nice to meet some of the guys

Would anyone be interested in buying prints of their cars if I started getting photos when I'm there?

My pictures seem to be coming out very nice.

I can do 8x10's for like 12.50(They were charging 15$ I believe). Cheaper if you get multiple pictures at the same time.

haha, very afraid... lol.

haha, no there is essentially NO tech. They do get a little strict when there is an event, but for t&t its pretty much every man for himself. The only thing they said to me was that next time I come, no antifreeze. only water.
