I knew I saw some AMS stickers on the car, but I figured Greg or leh put it there so I didn't think anything of it.

RPF-1's are 10" wide (and over 2lbs heavier than the 9/9.5 spec wheels) and at 18 offset need ALOT of work to fit under the stock fenders the rears are +38 and double on the front mods to get them to fit...I used the 245/45/17 NITTO tires and they worked GREAT...remember campers the red car ran at 305 hp 22psi stock turbo,block,head,cams,intake&exhaust manifolds, a year old flash and Buschur Racing bolt ons...NASA TimeTrial class A spec so I was very pleased with the results....I vote Spring Mountain TOO!!!!
Thanks Ali/Charles for all the effort and for my newest sponsor NITTO!...(well it covered 1/2 the fuel bill)....and for next year you east cost posers..you had your chance in your own back yard..AND I STILL CAME.....6 days (4 driving and 2 competing)5145.2 miles and $2,160.27 in fuel 2 trailer tires and one wheel...(I was asleep and my dad dragged it for 120 miles before I woke up and asked him what the sparks were..lol). SO NO WHINING no now, not ever! Compete or don't but talk only after you do! Look forward to meeting you all next year ON the WEST Coast!

you are the man robi................... thats all i got to say

Leh, after a full "decompression day" I'm starting to feel like a man again..roflmfao..Very nice meeting you Leh....and yes you were fighting for the win right to the last lap! AMS was the shop to beat and their testing and prep showed...but there is always next year! Get that car sorted and come back and play! (just please try not to make us broke a*s racing privateers look too bad)..
Jon/Mark/AMS mafia... heartfelt congrats on a well done win. I'll (hope to) get you next time! (when you come play in my backyard)...

I (Marty) was running bone stock Evo IX GSR suspension, ams ecu tweaks, a cat-back exh and a K&N drop in filter. It was a lot of fun even if I was underpowered and undersuspended for an Evo shootout
