Dont know yet..lol

I need to get the tires aired up so I can go on a cruise and see if Im going to have any cavitation issues with my setup. I seem to think everything will be fine but you never know til you test it. Im not worried about any roll races. i went out to prove a point that night and I got it done. Its time for serious business. I may get er all washed up this weekend with the spool in the car and take it out Monday night after class to the GTG by my house.
