yeah thats right!

does anyone have a set of 18mm or larger spacers? Im trying to borrow Adam's wheels for Sunday but they need 18mm spacers and all I have is 15mm. I guess a 3mm spacer would work too, I could just add that on to the 15mm I already have and make 18.

You could see what it looks like on my car on Sunday...running 255s I do have a set of 20mm that I lent Doug, but they're not the slip-on type that you need.

I'd like to do the same in the spring. It looks like it puts a hurting on your car though so I should probably take the time to make sure all my rig jobs are up to snuff over the winter.

Let me tell you guys that replacing that line was a serious PITA! I had to get trans cooler line to replace the broken one. I was working out there until about 7pm lastnight with the wife holding the flash light for me. Good news is I think its fixed, bad news is I totally washed down my court with coolant. That line on the TB is at a low point, so everything higher than it gravity bleeds right out. I had to get creative to stop from loosing all my coolant. I drove it today so I'll see how it holds.

Josh I don't think autox is as hard on the car as everyone thinks it is. Your really only "on it" for 45sec at a time. I would worry if your suspension is held together by bubble gum or something, other than that your fine.

hahah, you bring the lols Dan.

Josh, autox isn't hard on the car at all, not like drag or road racing. You dont get on WOT for more than a few seconds. Only thing is like Pete already said, make sure nothing is loose and you'll be fine.

BTW, we have two new competitors this week, one being Shaw, and the other will be A-bomb. Sna may also run but he's unsure. Looking forward to a great weekend boys!

On a side note, searched and found my 2009 Phillies World Series hat yesterday!
