I'm like Bill, I don't remove anything...well except the big chunks.

5. RE: Track pick-up (score: 1): Author: Bill Babcock <BillB@bnj.com>; Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2004 19:50:05 -0700; A lot of vintage groups will black flag you for warming your tires up by wagging. Everyone does it in SCCA and ICSSC--an absolute necessity IMHO for slicks and a lightweight car. I also warm up the b; /html/fot/2004-04/msg00198.html (9,891 bytes)
