Gotcha, my thinking is track time is track time. Just a good oppertunity to get some seat time. If you just want to watch its $10.

Hey, does anybody have 5mm wheel spacers i can barrow? The new track day tires rub on the bottom perch up front and i really dont want to take the helper spring out to clear the tire or spend $85 on H&R ones from FSW.

Any of you guys by chance know where I can find a cheap set of 15'' winter wheels? It seems like even the junk yards want way to much for their focus/contour steel wheels.

I actually have a set here that I'm pretty sure I won't be able to use, with Michelin X-Ice Xi2 tires on them, the tires only have one winter on them and were taken off in April, $300 for the set and their yours, and I'll even bring them down by you, since it's only about an hour and a half drive.
