Well that's good. Hopefully you'll be able to keep up with me now.

You'll have to give me a week so Sutton can sort it out.... The point being that we can sort out in one weekend of tracking what will take Ron of So Cal the next couple of years... LOL

16's? 17's? 22's?

On the oil psi deal, its been said 10psi per 1K rpm...really? Aren't oil pumps designed to flow a certain amount? Is a standard pump built/set for 60psi and it has a loss at greater rpm's?....I better go open a book.

Looking forward to seeing what's been done.

If he's smart he'll stick with the 16's. I've driven behind that car and it does well.

New wheels are Formula 43 RAD 10 Club Sports with Laguna Grey centers in 18 X 9.5 squared. New Hoosiers A7's are 245/35/18 which is their latest greatest tire. The A6 is now considered a discontinued tire.


Yes the general rule of thumb I've always known about is 10 psi per 1,000 rpms...

Well --- there's a few more things being done besides wheels... HAHAHAHAHAHA


The ClubSport wheel has additional lightening done to it - and deletes the center cap...

Spindles/uprights - big Howe ball joints - big race bearings - JRI's with custom valving and reservoirs - composite springs in the rear - Sway bars front and back... bigger brakes... geometry massaging... rod ends...

We're just doing most of this to piss Charley off... Well - that, and because it's fun.
