Carlisle weekend: Leaving home At Carslisle At South Mountain Raceway At the Expo Center

Unless the 67 R/T has less room than a 67 GTX, 255s will fit. Offset/backspacing will matter. If you work real hard at it, you might be able to get 275s on it. That would require a 7 1/2” rim, and a minimum of 5” BS, and then wheel spacer to perfection. At least that is what it looks like on...

Posting the time slip will help us with diagnostics, if that is what you want. I have made several hundred passes with a few different big block cars. Never have the cars gone faster and quicker with more heat. I do have considerable data that shows them slowing down with more heat. If tire...

The Rs.

Yes. Started with the S/S. After I went through those, I got the Rs. Before those, I had BFGs. In my day to day normal driving, I could/can tell no difference between the three. That said, my day to day driving is not real taxing. 70% of my driving is country roads. They are winding and...

They drive very well, corner well. Wet pavement okay, light rain, very cautious depending on road conditions. Heavy rain, standing water, no.

Maybe, but I did not see any mention by the OP regadring the ET Street Rs. The Rs have a nylon belted sidewall, and steel in the tread surface, according to their tech folks. The Rs sidewall will wrinkle. I just drove 500 miles on my Rs last weekend.

I'm not exactly sure what your question is. If it about driving in rain, I think comment #3 is what you should expect with the ET Street S/S. All other driving conditions will be like any other street radial. I think they drive and handle very well. They are a full steel belted radial.

Sorry for how it worked out. You’ii get better from it. Thanks for sharing. Really enjoy your posts.

You should do a cylinder pressure check to see what it is. This is always good info to have when paired-up with your fuel quality needs.

Casey and I watched the cruise. Not many cars, and probably only 30% of those were classic muscle cars. I wouldn’t give up on it as it was the first time event. Where to park for spectating was unclear as Pitt Ave is mostly residential. We parked downtown parking lot and sat on Main Street...
