Good luck with the new product. Its nice to see what looks like a quality race kit at a reasonble price.

I'm sure Raul will be a handful to deal with in 1/8th scale. I promise not to woop-up on him too badly....LOL

Hey Carl !!! You know what ? I still have your video of the 2004 nats. I need to send that out asap for ya.

Fr / Rear: for qual. 67/74

For the mains it depends on the lenght of time and tire wear. Measure your tire wear after each qualifier to calculate how much tire you need to finish a 30, 45 or even 60 minute main.
