Looks like so much fun!!!

Looking at those pics, though, I know my car can't do it with these tires and this bodykit.... It would rub so much my car would probably catch fire!!!

Some cheapie steelies and some rather cheap Azenis will take care of that

Seems like just about everyone had and auto-x today. I'd post some pics, but the ones available are none too impressive.

We did, however, I quite an eventful day. Let see, we had 240Z blow a head gasket and finish the course with white smoke EVERYWHERE, a '70 Mach 1 break a valve spring and run 3 of 4 runs on 7 cylinders, many sideways and backwards finish light trips (including myself once ), one car actually puntinting the timing reflector about 30feet, several cars dropping parts all over the course, and..oh yeah, one car hitting a wall .

Several of you guys have seen that big blue wall at Turner, so you know which one I'm talking about. Nothing all that spectacular,really. He came too hot through the timing lights, locked his brakes with his rear end hanging out and slowed to about 10-15 MPH when he hit the wall. Banged up his fender and bumper pretty good, though. Funny thing was, he was more pissed at the cones he smacked than hitting the wall.

Or I could use the stock Enkei 14" aluminum rims that came with the GT I bought... How much do those weigh? Does anyone know?

mazdaspeedwest
