I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I'd love to get Panasports, but they are too expensive and in reality they wouldn't make me any faster, unless they make a 13x8.

These were 280 bucks shipped. :blang:

Damn, those ARE nice! Maybe next time :drool:

phan: There are a few local autoXers using the 235-45-13 tire on 13x8s (pretty much all of SM and SM2 were) and they ranged from two to five full seconds faster times than me, depending on how much better drivers they are than me. I still need some practice.

BTW everyone, check out the videos http://upressure.net/koto big, big, humongous thanks to PHAN for his generosity and patience!! The videos from last sunday begin with 32104 (the date), then the driver, then which run it is (1st through 5th), then who the passenger is.

I'll post 'em in multimedia too...
