Sounds like I would not have 86k on it for long! Maybe I should do a few
burn outs and see what I can break. Naaah. These cars seem to need enough
work on their own and they aren't "race cars". Well as they say, "ya can't
drive for free". Besides if I want to go fast I'll ride my KX250 out in the
desert. Flying through the air in a SEC reminds me of the movie "Road house"


>>HI Jack I had a set of Lorinser wheels like yours, 2 broke and I was told

I would like to get a set of the AMG mono blocks, but is it really going to
get me anything other than "the looks"?  The rears seem to get swallowed up
and look too small. However these wheels seem to provide a pretty good
traction w/ the Pirelli 6000's. A couple of mine have some slight chrome
damage. I still have a lot of rubber on them, so I'm in no hurry. Maybe you
could use a few more hose reels. LOL
