Hey guys, sorry for the late reply, things have been real busy with the car trying to get ready for Richmond in a week and a half and I haven't even seen a computer in 3 days xcept for work. I should reply by this weekend at the absolute latest to everyone's posts if not before. Sorry again for the delay, but the car is making good progress!

Most wheels are solid where the lugs mount, or "hub-centric". The 96 series wheel has a floating weight inside of the wheel that makes the wheel extremely hard to balanc and remount time after time. The other complications to mount the wheel are probably the same as other racing weld wheels, ie.. backspacing, grinding of caliper and bolt, ect...

ESPN?! Last year only the pro classes were televised on ESPN. They told us that the final round in Sprotsman classes would be televised, but that wasn't the case. Are they doing that this year? Anxious to hear about it. Problems with clutch existed, and right lane at that track was horrible. Working out problems with the car as we speak.

Yeah, just sent you a reply, sorry for the delay. That's great that they televise the last run, I still haven't seen it yet. Maybe when I do finally kick her ***, it will be national!
JK....well sort of.
