Autocross - July 4th - Be there

Hey folks,

UBC club event on Sunday, July 4th. If you are not a member, you can join in the morning. If I can get my Z06 shocks and swaybars installed by then I will definitely attend.

Should be a great day of racing with lots of runs for all.

I may be there if I can get my new tires/rims by then. If not I'll be at the next one.

Hmm you guys have me thinking.

Anone interested in RENTING either my Auto X wheels and tires and my drag slicks and skinnies? Say $40 per day. Given that there is about $1000 of capital in each set seems like a deal.

Honestly, I'm not to keen on 'lending' them out.

40$ seems like a good deal with the amount of wear and tear they take. . . . what size are your slicks and skinies ??

Id rent them .. except I know how long they have been on the shelf in your garage .. I dont even know if they are gonna hook anymore or be hard as a rock

they have almost the same compound as slicks only a hard sidewall, and slick compound goes bad if it sits for too long
