That's why my rear end is in the shop getting fully built right now so that will never happen, I opted for the stronger wheel studs.

Yeah this guy was pretty sure He had a 10 second car on His hand's and was trying to get a set of stickiy's all day long " He tried to borrow an extra set of Mine that Tony had brought up to the track for Me" and He finally got His wish and borrowed some rim's and tires from someone. Bad thing's happen when You are trying to put stuff together at the last moment I guess.

Thats what happens when you run wheels that require a shanked style lug nut with non shanked acorn lug nuts [Roll Eyes] [Eek!]

He claims, "someone else put my wheels on"....lol

Really, this guy was begging and pleading with people trying to borrow some tires. Well, he got some, (minus matching lug nuts), as well as a tow bill back to Fresno [Razz]

Oh, and what you can't hear on the vid, is when the guy got out of his car and ran back to check the damage, the first thing out of his mouth was, "how the f*** am I going to get home!"

LOL Classic [worship]

I don't get it. All that time, money and effort spent to turbo his car and make it go fast yet he doesn't even buy some sticky tires, especially when he plans to drag race it. Dork!

thas is tru...all the money he spent to get towed home he could have bought tires..

98 white z-28, broke his rearend at the line.

He(or his friend) fixed it at the track and he drove it home. I wondered why he came to the track with over 550 RWHP on 245/xx/16 Remington street tires.
