I ran 1000wt for all the classes.

I do not think we will use different oil depnding on class, as much as traction and environment.

J, make sure to let us know how you like it. Are you going to wait to run it at SWR or are you going to do a couple of street runs with it?

Did you go with Spec-R or did you convert NT1?

I was thinking of doing the revo but I'd rather get some nats practice. As of right now I gotta work Saturday morning but I'm trying to work something out. If not I guess i'm going to ripon.
