Post by Kurt Rahn »

Baby got a new pair of shoes! Now I'll only be 2-3 sec behind the SK2 leaders, instead of the usual 3-4 sec behind. :lol:

They say to drive fairly mellowly for about 500 miles. I figure that's about how much I'll drive between now and the Pro ;)

Only had 'em for a few hours, and I've been taking it pretty easy so far. I'll probably lean into them better over the next few days. I'll let you know then.

Nothing crazy or dangerous...just a nice full-throttle run up an onramp or two. After all, you have to get yourself up to freeway speeds ;)
