Had probably the biggest smile on my face for a long time at the end of the practice

what did you change? just tire?

Not sure, I changed so many things that I can't pin it on any one thing.

New car (s4 to s5)
Newer bushings
Power Steering
Brakes
Tires

The old car was a nice handful - which could have been managable if I had power steering, but since I didn't and had the higher ratio rack, I guess I couldn't keep up. It sure has made me a better driver though.

Lol, on the race.

I was going to go to Dave's but I have an order in on some more parts for 8 that I'd like to have before getting back up there. Also helping a friend move his FB to a warmer place for the winter... so much to do, lol.

Car feels and drives very good, just got to work on the bug behind the steering wheel:

Going to try out some Collinite's No. 845 Insulator Wax when this rain lets up, I've heard some really good things about them

Will let you know how it goes!

Fine looking car Johnson!

I've got a buddy that swears by that stuff. Personally, I'll stick with my 3M glaze and Mothers wax.

His car's a monster! I didn't get a chance to ride in it since I worked when he ran, but damn does that thing scoot! He was playing around with the prop valve so he was smokin' his tires a bit before dialing them in
