I am not sure if that was refering to me, but if it was, I wasn't talking about racing him. I am talking about just meeting up and saying hello. Unit is one of the few people in MI that's a car guy that I have never met in person after so many years. Hehe.

Ya I'd love to see the Unit vs the TT Gallardo.

Sounds like fun though Unit, I haven't had anyone run close to me yet on my bike. So sounds like you got a fun ride.

BIG ******* . Cars can't keep up with bikes at all, much less your rustang POS meng.





























you finally got wise and ordered the 3.55's eh? Good move.

Oh and good call on those Hoosiers as well. What kind wheel are you gonna be running? Will a 17x10.5 fit with your SRA?

of the steam rollers:




I really dislike how the catback exhaust system looks with a IRS Cobra (above). It looks way better with a solid axle.

I didn't actually order the 3.55's yet. I'll just take the car up to my buddy's shop sometime soon and have them swap gears for me. I just don't like how short the 3.90 gear is. I liked winding out the gears more with the 3.55.

I have two 17x10.5 chrome '03 Cobra replica wheels on the way now.
This wheel/tire combo is supposed to fit like a glove with the SRA.
Guys with the IRS need to run a 3/8" or a 1/2" spacer. I should have
them mounted early next week some time. Hopefully I'll be able to cut
a 1.5 60' at least with them. We'll see.

Bike next to you busting a wheelie full throttle while you are full throttle would be a rush even if it was a lost. Damn I wish I could've scene it.

335's are a very proper sized tire. All business.
