well it stared fine, but when you got on the road, started hearing the motor die, pressed on the gas and it reved up but died. did that for a little bit, but noting. going to buy new spark plugs wires and a fuel pump and hope some how that fixes it.

on the plus side i didnt have to go on my run after that.

Heading out to Ontario this morning to check out a set of used Toyo Proxes on stock 5 spoke Super Duty wheels. . If they're in good shape I'm gonna pull the trigger and use them for track tires.

Nice. I would have grabbed the alum wheels. When you said 5 spoke, I was expecting steel like mine.
