SORRY guys for the wasted time on the interior and sapre tire area shot...........we have a large segment of the TBSS crowd that removes EVERYTHING not welded down before a track trip and then posts their time in -DA with a race weight nothing like it sits on the street and that part of the video was my in your face for those that strip their ride before posting PB's...........

this was a race weight of about 4700-4750, i have not weighed it with the drag rad and skinny fronts yet

enjoy, the you tube link is MUCHO faster to downlaod and play......enjoy......

Thats a good idea to tape the rear like that. Its always a pain in the *** to get rubber off after going to the track.

yeah try getting it off white.....




not a unique idea.....i copied it off this DETAIL FREAK on the TBSS board that hated his stuff getting dirty at the track

i said the same thing and went to home depot and bought a **** load of painters tape....it is just sticky enough to stay on but not so sticky it leaves GOO on the paint.....JUST A PERFECT way to deal with the mess......

instead of taping it off, try putting a light coat of wax on the area where you normally tape without wiping it off...

it's hardly noticeable, and at the end of the night when you get home the mess just wipes right off.
