I went to PINKS yesterday (didn't bring my car, but I wish that I would've). I was with Robert Hindman and crew. We thought that the 10.90-11.00 group would be the best place to be, but we were off by a couple of tenth's. I guess with over 400 cars, it's a crap-shoot to get into a field of 16. They ended up choosing a 10.60-10.70 field. I'm actually really disappointed in the cars that ended up there....mostly loud bracket-stlye cars w/ open headers. The field was mostly old-school cars that I never care to see on PINKS. The few newer cars were F-bodies, but both went out in the first round. My favorite of the group was a clean Dodge truck that was quiet and it impressed the crowd as it purged at the starting line. Reminded me of Copperdodge's truck....only this was was old-school. All in all, it was a fun event!!!

i've had the same problem before with my old car and the 93 cobra wheels, it puts toooooo much pressure on the studs and twists the shit out of them with a sticky tire
