You are getting anxious Bill. I knew you couldn't resist slapping on those slicks.
Reducing the friction with new bearings is smart.

Slicks are a good fit. They drop my final drive ratio to 3.03. I'm trying to wear the sticky crap left from the labels off them. Just short local trips the next couple days. Also a good chance to make sure the balancing is right on them before the track.

Prybars are from NAPA.

I had big plans for today. On the green car. My back is telling my mind to change plans, but we'll see if a good hot shower will change it'* mind. There'* horsepower on the line here. For just the price of gaskets.

The other green car. Zilla'* PP top end from last year.

SLE needs a new coupler and LIM gaskets are still original at 125,000 miles. Might as well swap on the modified/rebuilt parts I have sitting here.

I was wondering what was up with that cat, haha.

What brand are those rotors? And btw, sweet Mickey'* up front. Atleast you had painted the wheels the right color, I hate it when people leave the wheels looking like **** and just leave em.

Ever consider painting the drums too, since the calipers are painted?

Red drums wouldn't look right. Besides, my crosslaces wouldn't show much of it anyway.

Rotors are Powerslots. Brembo blanks, slotted and hardened by Powerslot.

Good point... you'd have to look hard to see 'em through the laces.

When I go to replace my rotors, I'll have to look for a set of those!
