i got to play with one of those in traffic a few months back. not a whole lot of room to maneuver so i kept up pretty well.

even at low speeds when the throttle is pushed in one of those cars the way it moves is like nothing i have ever seen. it looks completely effortless and instantaneous. really impressive to watch it move on the even on the street.

Cool man, thanks. Do they actually have to take the tire off? Or do they just do it on the car?

very nice! And to think such a pretty piece gets put inside to never be seen again. That is until you have to replace the discs.

So IMO we all better make sure to buy Mitsumike a nice x-mas present or he might just loose his mind and stop working on Mitsubishi's.

Hey Jeremy,

I know you have some meats on your 18" Enkei NTO3+M's when your rolled the fenders was it just the rear lip or is there anywhere else that needs attention that I should look at?

Mike

nothing says thank you like a hooker and some malt liquor.

Mike,

Look out for the bolt holding the rear fender on. I cut some of that away, also you might need to pound some seems alittle flat in the front. You will eat up your fender liners but that is no big deal. Now I did pull my rears alittle also, not just rolled.

I was there on sunday and stood up there by the uphill bend close to where the BMW's were sitting and watched part of the race...Felt bad for the one guy though with the pace cars...there was a white 1 series that led the pack followed by a white m5 and then by a magenta 6 series that locked up around the bend and hit slammed into the curb pretty hard

It depends on how badly it is curbed. If it is only one wheel and not that messed up, he could probably leave it on the car. He does them either at his house or in his van. He fixes all of the wheels for Baeirl and some other dealerships.
