Re: SCCA Solo Class Article/Discussion

It's clear to me that switching stock to street tires is probably never going to happen. It's too controversial, so not very likely to change IMO. Everything I'm saying is are just the opinions I've formed in my year and a half in the sport. I know that "Stock" allowing slick tires was on...

Re: Pittsburgh impact gun @ SD National Tour

We saw the gun and didn't think it was ours because the tape we put on it was gone and we didn't think we'd leave it. It's from HF, yes, but still $70 new. Can someone ship it? Can use my Fedex account and ship it Fedex Ground... If it's in SD you probably will get more luck asking on their regions...
