    Very nice looking course, do you race the whole course or just a portion of it. If it is the whole course you should really cook!
    Love the "Shell Oil Corner".......you guys are pretty fortunate..........should be alot of fun............I love road courses almost as much as drag racing.

    The wheels are of unknown maker I found on Ebay for £100 for six, There 7 x 15 and were polished laser cut. The tyres are Yokohama Adva-032R race tyres 225/60/15 which are very sticky :thumbs2:
