    New AIM Solo GPS Lap Timer...

    Cascade 8 Hour Enduro - October 15 - Portland - Why I Am In!

    I am a newbie to racing - this is only my 2nd year and I collect social security. I love to race as we all do. I love the entire weekend, all of it...on track and off.

    Looking for worn by serviceable 225x50x15's....any brand.

    Just resurrected a 83 - 944 which has not run since 2004. But the tires are way past their life. Car may just become a track/autox/chump car so just need some race type rubber...RA-1's would be great - Can pickup. Prefer free, but some $$ possible.... Thanks.
