I've been out to the Indy Salt flats this week, maybe hit 80 mph, thought I'd show you some pictures,bonniville style. Also check out my temporary DF style avatar, with MY signature beverage!

I had a little bit of the LSR bug and KT & Dan stoked it plan on getting down to Maxton this spring with the GTA and fellow member Vortec RS . Just hope I don't get lucky an hit 135 and make KT mad for no cage.

Re: Indy salt flats

Hey BIGBUDS I have a question for you . You've ran maxton and I've seen you hit 129.something . I was wondering performance wise whats been done to it? 350 TPI / 700R ? and what rear gear and tranny gear you were in at the end , also do you remimber the rpms you were spinning? Sorry for all the questions but I want to have a idiea what to expect.
