    put some 8"x15" rims with 275/60s on the back today. that is a lot of tire. we are going to tnt sat. at the drags. if i can't get these to hook up i guess i will do the pos. track. i tried them out and they spun as bad as the 225/60/14s i had. maybe the track will hook up better...frank...:bananaman :bananaman

    m.a.v., chris and i will be there about 11:00 am. i gave you a beep last nite. i guess sonny missed it. as far as the look i am not crazy about it. (too high to clear the fenders). chris drove it to school today. he also still has the track markings on the window and windshield where we ran last sat. give me a call...frank...:bananaman :bananaman

    Frank Are you using anything to raise the rear of the car? or does it sit that high with just the springs? Russ
