Whatcha think of my new ride...?

Check it out here:

http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...page_id=251006

I just whipped up a quick cardomain site, and could use a vote or two....

Do you like the Fikse FM-10 wheels on my new car, or the TTII's I had on my last car? Here's a pic of the TTII's

Also, anyone know where I can find a dyno in the Central Arkansas area?

Or option D: Sell me the Fikse cheap.

Those wheels are sweet, ever since I saw them in GMHT I've wanted them, I'd keep them. Too bad they're so expensive.

In all seriousness, I like the TT2's. If you are interested in selling the FM/10's, I am VERY interested in buying them. Lemme know.

jakef2003,

Email me at shawn@up-link.net if you want to make me an offer on the wheels. They have Goodyear Eagle F1 GS 275/40/17 tires on them with approx 10,000 miles of use, and are in good shape. I could also sell the wheels minus the tires if you wanted to go that route.

I'm going to bed right now, and will be checking e-mail later this evening. (I work nights...)

Shawn,

Sweet car. I'll have to keep a look out for you. Central Arkansas wouldn't happen to be Little Rock would it? Personally, I like the TT2. Others are a little to busy.

Actually I live in Benton....

But I work in Little Rock. You might see me around some. I plan on making it to Centerville or Prescot next year to test her out. Kinda sux that we only have a 1000 ft drag strip in AR huh? Know of any dyno shops in Little Rock or Arkansas for that matter?

Shawn,

It seems that Prescott has been a quater mile track at one time. They may open it longer in the future. Here in Little Rock over at Barton Colliseum, we have a new eighth mile track. The owner has thrown out hints he would like to make it a quater mile track if the money is available and attendance is good.

Blair's British Car Service (BBC) in North Little Rock, near Alltel arena, has a dyno. Polk's, in Bryant, has one planned.

OH man, you would be a FOOL to get rid of those wheels. They set it off!! That car is off the hook man! Bling bling!!

TTIIs are highly overrated, and everyone has them nowadays..

Michael,

Thanks for the info....I know Prescott was a 1/4 mile track years ago. My dad used to drag race there

I'll have to give Blair's a call tomorrow and see if I can get my car down there for a good baseline run before I do any tuning or add anything else.

Thanks,
Shawn
