Judas Priest, I have 3 Mustang Challenge cars. 1 V/P fuel car, and 1 GS car.
5 races, one is a 4 hour .
If any of you guys get bored come on by.

I may have some spare time for GS. Might need a uniform change though.

If it wasn't for personal commitments at home (2 grand daughters dance recital) I'd be making the trek to watch in person. I'll be rooting from home with the live stream

I may have some spare time for GS. Might need a uniform change though.

I'm sure I can find a shirt...

A non-forged race wheel doesn't exist. So, apparently using a street wheel on the track? That's an extremely bad idea.

How are the tires in general? It's Mid-O, is everyone fighting U/S?

Related last year, negligible tire wear on these rocks.

Second race, I think we did all our stuff in the top 10 or so. I was in the tire trailer getting ready for VP sprints
