Tire Pressure Help-Pic Inside

[motorhead]

Wheels are too narrow and the surface is shit.

What's wrong with racing on gravel? That's why I use the oldest pair of slicks I have. Dan with the Roadrunner and Kevin with the Coronet both used wore out DR's on the weekend. It's a pedalfest! LOL!!!

In the past they at least gave a time. why not this time?

What size are your street lites? Might be time for a cheap 10" wheel. Does anyone have a set around that you could borrow and try them?

I have the 9 inch slicks on my Streetlites. Armdrop is just for fun...and the tarmac is fukd...so you don't use anything good there.

Timing equipment went for a fuk right off the hop. Glen and his volunteers are there the nite before setting everything up. It's a huge undertaking. If you noticed the yellow Mach 1? Mustang across from the start...that's Steve that looks after the timing. He comes in from Newmarket the nite before to set up. Doubt he gets much sleep.

Armdrop started off at SMP prolly 11-12 years ago...by another gent. Think there was 20-30 of us at the first one. Joe DaSilva ran an event there as well. The gent that originally started it...quit. Glen took it over...but the guy wouldn't give him the name. Glen changed the name and moved it to Picton Airfield. I can boast that I'm the only one that has raced at every event since it started. Glen is trying to put an event on at the old Mohawk Dragway...but several of the elders are putting up a fuss...saying we'll wreck the tarmac. Glen was talking to me about possibly one at SMP as well...but the cost is prohibitive there.

Gotcha - your probably doing the best you can with what you got!

Jeremy...this is a pic Ron took of the rear tire showing the pattern. Ignore it...and look at the tarmac. You get the idea. And there's cracks with weeds growing out of them as well. You don't bring anything good there.
