I just went ahead and ordered a Hawk Advance... it was less than 40 bucks and fit the bill for me. They make them in Matte black for the same price, wish I would have seen that before I ordered the silver, but it ended up being a good spot to put my an SS decal, lol. 13.99 is the number where you are required to wear one, so i didn't want to risk showing up and not being able to race if I had enough to do the number.

 

I'm sure the cold(er) temps didn't help with traction. Madison, that's right across the river, right? If that's the same one, I raced there years ago in my 1972 Cutlass.

 

Nice helmet, but you look a lil' young to be driving! How many phone books do you sit on to reach the pedals? (j/k)

Cute pictures.

 

Yep, it's right across the river. It's a 5 minute drive from where I live

I think it's a pretty good track.....they do NHRA racing there.

 

Gateway, or something like that, right...

there's also another one on page 4.

My truck needs some serious bodywork....looks enhancements LOL.

 

I have some 305 45 22 toyos and i can spin them all the way through 2nd gear after doing a lil burnout to clean them up. My regular tires are 265 70 17 bfg at's and they get much better traction, but still spin pretty good. I am not a fan of the toyos, they look aggressive but the traction sucks. I had some nitto's on those wheels before and they hooked way better. ditch the toyos and you will improve big time.

 

toyo aftermath

 

That looks like mine! haha

 

14.0 is not a bad time at all for the mods...but like mentioned traction is going to get you better e/t's...
