Wow, where is everyone? We sure did quiet down for the last few weeks!

Happy V Day everyone! And remember, always have on good rubbers while doing the 1/4 mile or endurance races.

You guys know I only do every other weekend. However, today I've come to the conclusion that I will be getting WedsSport TC005s. I'll probably be buying them beginning of March, we shall see...

The TC005s don't look that great on RX-8s since the thin spokes and angular features of the wheel doesn't blend well with the swoopy styling and rather bloated profile. However, for weight reduction they are some of the best values out there.

I dunno. I think the "Y" shapes look like triangles/rotors...
