            Brian,

            Oh yeah, bad thing. Don’t do that to a BRM tire let alone a Shore 15 tire. It gets too hot and chunks badly.

            I managed to get the new NewMan Slot.it. It’s already baked and ready to roll.

              I m wondering if this comes in ‘red’ or is it plain and you paint it yourself ? I’ve seen several kits looking like its a ‘snap’ together kit – is there any real bone-fide kits ?

                ya i am going to agree with shawn on that. My trucks don’t work that well on every turn they pop out. Go figure

                    hmm tempting

                    I was looking at the bit, thinking 35.00 or so + braid, etc:

                    then looking at copper tape + taping tool (40.00) etc I might as well go for braid this time around – my track is not small, its pretty large some days I m kicking myself – some days I m happy.

                    checked braid – guy in San Antonio – has braid at .28 cents a foot at 500 foot or under, and 22 cents a foot at 1K, difference in price is 40.00 I’m wondering if I m doing my math wrong

                    .28 * 500 ft = 140.00
                    .22 * 1000 ft = 220.00 (an extra 500 feet for only 80 bucks and you cant get 500 for that price)

                    decisions, decisions 🙂

                    Thanks for the offer, I ll stop by sometimes during winter break with my son again and decide on braid/copper

                      I agree it looks out of place on an f1 car maybe but on an Audi it looks like its from aliens.

                          Thanks for the tip on where to pick up the 1/8 bit

                          its a 1/4 shank, wont fit my PorterCable 6902 (1/2 inch hank) need to order a new collet 🙁 but nonetheless the routing is coming SOON.

                              Yeah next season is going to be very interesting and when I say interesting, I mean borderline boring. This is like the transition from the Group B rally cars to the last era of cars. They’re really turning to cars down in the guise to make it more accessible to more manufacturers but still slowing the cars down.

                                Yup, and a full page AD in Auto Week that I get every 2 weeks.

                                Also saw the White Ring (I forgot was it F1 WHite Ring or some other name) in Automobile magazine a month or two ago. (I ll have to find it again)

                                Looks nice, wonder how much it would set me back instead of doing it myself…
