I'm gonna try and record as much as possible n' throw a quick vid collage together afterwards. I think the cars sliding and engine noise should be enough music too

Mad Mikes 8 has a custom widened BN sports kit and wow his car does look great. Close to too much poke in the front but it works out.

I really want to know who is piloting the grey 4-rotor rx8.

There is a live stream going on right now for qualifying and practice.

Just saw mad mike's 8 there, but he didn't do a run.

18x8.5 +25 225/45-18
18x9.5 +30 245/40-18

I feel that a roll would be necessary but you think I'll have to pull fenders also?

I have MS struts/springs.....

No pull necessary but you will need to trim up the plastic in the back. I have 9.5 +28 with 245s right now and that is what I had to do.

Go look inside the wheel well in the back and you will see how the plastic sticks out to cover the bumper mounting tab. You will have to cut that plastic cover off.

Dude no way, Faust was much more on par, not only was the gap of the supra huge but Faust was on his *** when he was following!

I missed the second round of the finals, Millen pissed me off (apparently Gittin Jr also, lol) in the first round, all I saw was Millen spin in his second round. I like the wheels on that mustang too <3

It was a good round, I was just voting for the rookie. Hopefully the RX8s have a better showing next time.
