I hear it helps if you're angry, or at least look angry.

I went to the autocross Sunday. I am having a set of racing wheels made right now and will probably get out to the drag strip soon. I have shattered my big and skinny dreams with my Forgeline purchase. I am going to go with a wheel and tire I can safely run autocross, road course, and drag strip.

Boosts aren't going anywhere. They are still my favorite for my car. Just want a spare set of lighter weight 18's with a set of R compounds since I intend to race the car alot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you are 100% right, it never ends dude. Your journey has just begun.

Yeah good. Those Boosts are money on 1st gens. I kinda regret changing my mind and not getting them. You done good.

18s and R compounds sounds yummy. You thinkin R888s?

I really want the Hoosier A6's for autocross but I do intend to run the optima challenge and drag strip for fun and don't and can't afford to buy that many compounds. R888 should work for everything fairly well.

Good deal man.....sounds like a plan! Should run really good I bet. 500rwhp should get you some soild low 120 traps I would think. Sometimes I wish I went the big stroker BBC route instead of the Procharger...just so much crap to worry about!
