In retrospect, I should have start track days before I was married, had a house, dog and kid. Money and time were ample back then.

yeah in theory it should work. but i havent fully confirmed that the track width is equal front and rear.

its better than a condom. no girl wants to go to the track with me or even ride in the evo. i spend like all of me free weekends either at the track or working on the car so little time to go out, and very little free money for any form of fun outside going to the track.


...dammit nevermind it sounds lime I'M the problem lol.

Regarding track days, you can't help what you didn't know.

The string line is set the same distance on the front and rear bars (on smart strings or other kit), u measure left front hub to right front hub and move the bar until centered, then do the same for the rear. Offsets don't matter. I'm sure the are videos online. Very easy to make a homemade kit, save $300

Foren, this guy is coming to CTD. You were selected to take him for a ride to try to scare him.

Maybe for the Rolla and the Subbie. But you're need bigger pliers and longer lever arm for Evo tires cause of shorter/stiffer sidewall. BOOM!
