    Doug,

    Isn’t the shifter the one that blistered the rt rear tire? Look at that the photo. What kind of tire pressure were you running on that bad boy? Don’t know if he just made a pass and was sliding it in there, Holy smokes! Bead lock’s?

    Looking forward to Juction, hope you and Greg are coming.

    Rick, that picture was taken by Mitch Bowers. He raced TAG Masters that day, too, but took time to shoot some pics. Look in the album for more! He also did the aerial shot of “The Track” on http://www.thetrack.us.

    Thanks Angie,

    I think I met him and his friends (running a Biland?) while trying to help save canopies with A.J.

    Some cool photo’s. Particularly that one of Greg trying to stretch his rt rear off the rim!

    I can’t give away all my secrets! We do run beadlocks, and looking at the picture, we need them. I hadn’t noticed it before. I wonder if we can get a blow up of that tire. Hey Mitch, how about posting a blowup of the tire so we can see how much it’s deflected!

    I like the one of Kyle with the front tire off the ground.

    We’ll be in Grand Junction, wouldn’t miss it.

    Mitch sent this to me. You can see the bead surface.

    It would look cool from the other side too. You brutalized that tire!

    Adrian (Ace) Cario came by to root on his buddy Greg on Sunday. He and I sat at turn #1 and watched Greg’s RR wheel just about be-bead itself every lap.
    There was about 1/2 – 3/4″ of al-u-mim-e-ummm showing. Very cool.

    We did blister a RR tire there just trying to find grip one day. The Track does challenge the average tuner and driver.

    Cool, it looks like that new slick interior tire dope is doing something.
