Milwaukee - America's Drunkest Evo Owners

That Milwaukee Mile lapping course looks almost overly basic. Are you going to toss some gates out there or something to keep us awake? Maybe I'll just hit up the autox instead. Got any vids of one of those?

I drilled it mostly out and used a #3 size sprial flute retractor which had enough bite to not torque the flute to the brink of breaking. I got the drill milimeters away from the actual threads luckily and didnt have to tap the threads to much. I just got the manifold in tonight, but now i need to go pick up a new bolt which actually is the one for the fuel rail. Used that one by mistake which is why it broke off in the head to begin with... its about 3 mm longer which didnt look when putting it in LOL... kinda sucked but didnt screw up to bad in the end... just took way to long to actually put it back together.

Ok I need some TIRE / rubber help!
Looking for a summer tire, to be only used in dry condition, with great handling and responsiveness...after being on ice skates with my all-seasons, i really need to go to the opposite extreme!
These would be used mainly for AutoX, and some street spirited driving-not too often tho, but not 'never'.
MY QUESTION: WHICH TIRE?
Kuhmo?
Bridgestone Re-11 ?
Bridgestone Re70?
(my current TOP choice)- the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec (i believe this is what a few of you are running) -for these would go with a 245, not 235-unless rubbing issues.
Others?
OPEN to ANY opinions, good bad anything, just need some FIRST hand opinions, I have read a LOT of reviews and it seems like the Star spec is the one to go with , or the new Bstone RE version? How do they compare to the RE11s/new version of them?
