do you have wheel-spacers? If so, do they effect conering at all? I'm looking to fill out my wheel-wells out back, but I don't need 10.5 inch tires for have an N/A motor!

I have H&R spacers in the rear. These BBS only come in 17x9 and I don't want some heavy *** Mustang wheel. I don't notice them handling wise either way. It didn't get worse or any better. I think it would effect IRS more than SRA but don't quote me on that.

I like to show up and beat the IRS guys. I almost went IRS but decided to stay with the SRA and mod that. I have placed better than most of the the Termi's that have been there in my class.

****ty. The last event before this I was actually good enough for 2nd place in Mustang Street tire. This time my best lap time was only good enough for fifth and I got called on a cone. Don't remember hitting one but I must have. That pushed me back to 8th. I wasn't happy at the end of this event haha.

I have been keeping up with some panhard equipped cars. Some of the cars have a lot more mods than me and I can keep up with them. I like pulling better time than the C5's too. Some guys just think that they own a Corvette and that they will beat everyone. Not true.
