Everyone looking for a rear strut brace you have to get the GT spec CF one. It looks so sick and is so lightweight it is crazy. I love it.

Ha ha ha, that's what I used to think too. I'm guessing you have yet to run leaded high octane fuel in your S2000 with a proper tune and high boost??

I ran race gas ... I think it was 105 ... at Spring Mountain just for safety. Car was NA at that point.

You'll be very contently surprised to see the added performance you gain by running high octane leaded fuel. Although, if you don't make the necessary changes, then it will be pointless to run anything other than the fuel you tune with.

Speaking of closed for year end, anyone notice how like half of the businesses in the valley were open New Years Day, and half were closed? Man, I go off subject way too much

I just got some BFG-KDW's I think they are too pricey for what they are. I had Kumho ecsta MX's before, they were awsome as far as performance goes, but they didn't last long. I personally think the Falken Ziex 512 is the best performing tire for our climate, and for the money. I've had four sets of them on different vehicles i've owned (between me and my fiance all of them AWD) and i've been happily satisfied with their performance, and wear characteristics, not to mention their price tag. If I don't put race rubber on my advans, that is definately the tire i'll run on them.

I would agree, the Falken Ziex 512 is probably one of the best tires that I have ever owned.

Thunderhill, that's in Cali, isnt it? I dunno, "Mike" might have a better estimate on that one...probalby like 11 hours...as for Spring Mountain where we're ALL going March 19-20th, that's probably about 5-6 hours, maybe more depending on how we drive, or less...(that's right ALL, you're all getting off your butts and going to Vegas with us)
