Starting to stock the trailer with consumables, spare parts, etc - ugh. Between all that & the stupid number of tires needed to get going its gotten a bit on the rough side. Everyone thinks I'm joking when they ask what I want for Christmas and I tell them tires...
Car looks like it’s coming together nicely!

Are you running Hoosiers for contingencies? Are you able to run BFG R1S? Excellent tire. I would argue it’s faster than R7 and it runs a long time just like a hard compound slick.

hehe it’s funny to watch how a trailer gets loaded up. The list of things that need to go in it is just endless. You know the one thing I’ve never bought that I should have? A broom. Hahaha. My friend has one so I use his, but I use it all the time. It’s ridiculous how much gravel and rocks ends up in my trailer from three sets of sticky race tires.
