Stupid question but I may be able to answer myself; would you go to MIR over capital becuase its more popular/nicer? Why not capital? Unless something big is going down Mason Dixon is like 70mile and MIR is about the same.

MIR always takes top spot, but can be a hike. Personally, I have never been to Capitol. I hear it can get pretty ricey and ghetto with tons of break downs and shit all over the track. Mason Dixon is the closest track for us, so we go there quite often. Cecil is a damn good track too.

I will give you all my email address for you to email me when going. I'd like to meet some of you out. [email protected] Please let me know when you go.

Anyways back to the tread, so whats the plan Laura? When do the tires go on the new wheels? What sizes are you running. I'm looking at 265/40/18 for the stock wheels and with that diameter I will stay under 6k in 4th, so that will be good. How about you?

Sounds good! I hope we can start racing next month. Hell, if anything, just take a Sunday and cruise around for a bit.

I am hoping the tires will be ordered in the next couple weeks. Spending money on other things at the moment. I'll most likely keep the same tires I had on the 17" Bullitts that I was racing with. Those were 275/40-17 MT drag radials. I'll be going with ET Streets though which are 26"X11.5" on a 15" wheel.

MIR is one of the best tracks around and they always take good car of you. They are about 2 hrs from me but I still like to go there.

Mason Dixon works for Laura and I since it's only 45mins west of us. Cecil and MIR are about 1.5-2 hrs away. We both have our personal bests at Cecil...

I think the builds will come in a flurry the end of February through March. We've both been accumulating parts, and Laura's got to find a good paint shop for the cowl hood. We just need some warm weather!
