| My ideal of a K-rock to be scared of. I used an old trick that has been used in offroad racing for years-we'll see how they do at GR in April |

Oooooooo those look pretty impressive. Got some time in them eh? Can't wait to see how they work out at GR. I want to try a set but seems not too many people like them. However, the new compound hopefully will fix that.

Nice tires, I like the cut pattern. Are you going to share the trick with everyone after GR?

I don't use it because of that friggen 100KB limmit-makes it immpossible to post 90% of my pictures without raping the quality down to nothing. Anywho, I cut a pair of grooves into the tip of my solding iron, let it get just hot enough to melt the rubber and grooved them up |
