yea i read where you left it out uncovered. don't you hate when you do stuff like that. then have to shell out the bucks to fix your f-up. i know i do. i want to bend my leg around and kick myself in the ***.
hey randy, i know it has been a while since you were at the track last but do you remember what your rpm was while running 4.10's and et streets. i remember you borrowed curts one time out. i want to say they were 26" but i might be wrong
basically, how much of third did you have left before the end of the race.

I cant remember what rpm's I crossed the traps at, but I was running Kurts 18 inch nitto drag radials. I think they were close to 28-29 inches in diameter. I was going to borrow Kenny's 26inch et streets one time, but we all agreed that may be too small a tire to run with the 4.10's. I had a good bit of mph left though. Gonna have to run a whole lot faster to be worried about running out of gear.

I'm SOL then, my truck has 164k on it. I have 3.08 gears to so I can't afford to lose any low end grunt.
