I never knew how much weight the wing added and was used to my "pull just the right amount for the trunk lid to just stall before *thump* ...it closes by itself". My girlfriend still has yet to master the technique. Now on a wingless car, those damn trunk lids are super light! When using the same force on a wingless car, the trunk lid barely touches the latch. But be careful letting those wingless guys touch your winged trunk lid.... Dave Ngo gave my trunk a good shaking when he tried to put my trunk lid into the trunk!

This is probably good for a least 1 track/cross. I'm in San Jose but work in Santa Clara. I prefer local to come pick them up, if not, I can ship them but you pay the s/h. -John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!

If you cut the bushing itself, it will slip out very easy.

#9. FS: Set of BBS RC track wheels and tires - from Seth Thomas
Top
Date: Fri, 9 Feb 2001 21:04:09 -0500 From: "Seth Thomas" <porsche993@mindspring.com> Subject: FS: Set of BBS RC track wheels and tires I have a set of 4 BBS RC Motorsport Edition wheels for sale. These wheels have been used as a set of track wheels. They are 17"x8" and have a set of Hoosier 245/40/17 RS303s on them. The Hoosiers have about another weekend or two left on them. The wheels don't have any curb marks but do have the usual track wear on them. I am asking $1200 for the wheels and tires plus shipping. Great wheels as they only weigh about 17lbs each. I have pictures if you are interested. Seth Thomas www.m3ltw.com www.m3power.com
