    MUSTANG 60TH BIRTHDAY PARTY AT BARBER

    Does anyone have any intel on who the photographers were? I spotted vests with cameras in at least 3 different locations in Very Advanced but I've no idea who they were.

    Falken RT660: recommendations for 18x11 Apex wheels

    Falken is also, I think, the only company with a contingency. They've also been spotty about everything from replacing the tire, no questions, to blaming it on you for running too low PSI. I dont intend to be rude. Its just a "caveat emptor." It seems like every month in racing season, someone...

    Budget street/hpd tires

    You've gotten some great feedback here... but I will add a few points to what's already said...I ran 3 years of track on 300TW summer sport tires. Michelin Pilot Sport PS2, Pilot Super Sports, and Pirelli Pzero.... a year of street driving (figure 10-15,000 miles), 3-5 track events... and...

    Falken RT660: recommendations for 18x11 Apex wheels

    I have eye-witness accounts going back to as short as late last year of tires that weren't older runs....Play a stupid game, get a stupid prize as far as I'm concerned....I'd look at the Continental Extreme Contact Sport or the Kumho V730(?) long before I look into buying a Falken.....

    Falken RT660: recommendations for 18x11 Apex wheels

    Google "rt660 delamination issues" before you buy one.... its kind of a "play stupid game, get stupid prize" thing at this point

    Falken RT660: recommendations for 18x11 Apex wheels

    I had about 2-3 seconds a lap improvement over a 3 mile track with a proper Michelin TCR take off slick vs. 200 TW Bridgestone RE71R or most any other 200 tw tire I ever threw at the car. I'm not sure if your Pirelli is a like a slick marketed to the public or the racecar slick
