I heard the course builders go, "oh crap we made the finals course too easy!" .. After you got done putting the rubber to it! Awesome to get to meet Jake! See you next year, on ur coast.. |

| Re: Del Monte's Double Agent New wheels and a fresh set of Gold Voodoo's It'll get a few geometry tweaks and a fresh rebuild on the shocks too. I have some bigger changes I would like to try with the lower link placing for more clearance, but that will have to wait until after Worlds |

Congratulations for yet another podium in the Worlds Jake. Darn I would like to see you winning that some year. What would the party be like?! Would like to see you and Jess in Europe some day soon. |

| Re: Del Monte's Double Agent Thanks! I still haven't settled on a combo that I really like for the narrower tires. I'm running a short course inner with a soft CI outer right now. I'll have some nice World's updates ready to post soon too |

Congrats Jake for the 3th at worlds! Always great performance at finals! It seem's you need the stress to show how good you'r really are! I did have some issue to upload your final run, but now it's done(10hours). Only 4 of the 10 best drivers could finish the first part of the final run. Sorry for no intro, but i think everybody knows it's Mr. Y-TOWN on P1 wheels, also called Jake Wright! 115/46 degree... Good to got the chance to meet you and Chess one time more! Don't forget to think about the european vacation trip including a little bit comping... CY Last edited by ZZR 1100 Racer; 10-02-2015 at 12:08 AM. |

Thanks for the great video Stephan! I hope you are still enjoying your wheels Updates are lagging behind a little bit. Who would have thought that running a business, working a full time job, and teaching a few days a week would be time consuming This truck will have some much needed improvements in time for the BLC season opener on Oct. 24th. |
