3/27/2007 Gateway-SCSS Street Car Shootout VIDEO!

Here's the first offering from Grinner Hester and the new Gateway Video Network covering the SX Performance Street Car Shootout Series on March 27th, 2007.

I made him promise to stay until the finals next time!

Tristan and I will try to pair up next week and make it a real race. We both have an idea of what we were doing wrong. Let's just hope the run makes the video. Father vs son! and father ....

That sounds like an attack on the elderly! Are you going to take that?

I have some Hoosier road racing tires (tread wear 40) would they help me launch better than Michelin MXX3/Pilot series?

I would think if there sticky they would. But you need to find at what rpm they like to be launched. At the track, the street will be different. I would be careful side stepping the clutch.

Road Race tires have much stiffer sidewalls than drag tires.....
