    Rona, I would have said harden up and burn those KU36's as an excuse to buy a fresh set, but with the way prices have been jacked on them lately (since the awesome deals of 12+ months ago when they were supposedly being "run out") i'd rather say its a good excuse to upgrade to something decent To get you in the game though, what's your PCD & offset, I might have something suitable for you here that I can bring?

    Hey Danae, is it a flat rate for the drags, regardless of whether you hold an ANDRA licence already or not?

    The KU36s are near new hence I would not like to ruin them with plenty of tread left. Current wheels are 17 x 8 +35 Offset & 5 x 100 PCD. I'm hoping to get some camber bolts beforehand to dial a touch more in so they don't scrub otherwise track rims would need to be possibly +38 Offset or not as wide. Biggest issue with rims is they need to have next to zero dish & next to no step in for the actual barrel or they won't clear the 8 Pot 330mm brakes. You could test fit on Shannon Noll's car as it is essentially the same shit.
    If in doubt power out

    Difference between using and wasting. Using would be 50+ laps at wakefield wearing down to the belts. Wasting is turning something with 95% tread left into a 50c piece that is shit to drive on, if they were due to be replace I'd have no issue flat spotting them.

    bugger, forgot about the girlylike 100mm PCD, can't help ya sorry bro, 17x7.5 ET40's might have worked with the camber change otherwise.

    A few people have camped out there over a couple of years. Most just tend to stay at the matilda, as there is no driving after drunken shenanigans.

    Thinking about camping again, been assured by Dave the organiser that the lovely rain we had 2 years ago was a freak of nature and highly unlikely to happen again (I think he said it was only the second time he could remember in Nationals history that it had rained)
