I seriously thought about it Rob... A chance to run NCCAR circuitcross again can make an autocrosser question their best judgment, relationships, health, priorities, etc, etc I tell ya!! :lol:

Right now, it's looking like November 9th at NCCAR, but that isn't confirmed yet.

So THSCC is the reason AV moved to Patriot course. I cannot say I'm upset by that -- NCCAR isn't much of a "track", per se.

I only missed one THSCC autocross this year I think. Unfortunately, I don't think I can make this one.

Well, you did better than I did, I missed 2. I guess I'll be the lone mustang at this event then. I'll try to make you guys proud of me :mrgreen: . Stephen, you in for STU next year? I'm still looking for a "cheap" set of 10" wide wheels. Nothing on craigslist right now.

The event is official, we are finalizing the prereg details shortly. We will likely be demo-ing Motorsportsreg for this event. Speeds will not exceed typical autocross speeds and thus novices are welcome. Cost will be $35/$45 instead of the usual $25/$35.

If you run STU, I could probably do that. I've got some 18 x 8.5's I'll sell you.

tough to put 285's on a 8.5 wheel. I still have my stocker wheels that are 8.5. I'll find something before the start of the season next year. 10" is preferable, but 9's would do.... BTW, can you tell me the offset on your 10" wheels please? Need that as a ref if I find a set of wheels....

I've read about people putting 275's on a 6" wheel!

Yeah, I believe Art ran 295 HoHo's on an 8.5. You can do it!

I'll take a look at the offset when I get home.

Rodney - Tire Rack and Ford Racing Parts both have offset and/or backside spacing info for Ford Racing Wheels including 18X10's just in case you didn't already know this. :) Also, Strano's website shows several Enkei and Steeda 18 X 9.5 and even an 18 X 10.5.

yup, I'm aware... I just wanted the info from Stephen because I know those worked. I'll have a base point to use when looking for another set.
