Default Thank You Yokohama.....

... for your extremely generous contingency program. Trackside Performance, Yoko's competition distributor, awards 3 slicks for winning a NASA or POC race with 5 cars in class. If you're running slicks in a NASA class this program is pretty awesome. I've been racing a bunch this year since business sucks, and I appreciate their generosity....

Jeez John,

Share the wealth!

You know I'm another broke contractor.

Hope all is well with you!

WOW...that is way cool! I bet your garage smells nice too with all that rubber.

Great that you are racing more with business being off. My business is off too but I am working 3x's as hard and can't afford to do as many track days as I use to. I applaude you on doing what you want during these trying time.

I think we should "test fit" a new set on the Cayman at LS. Just for a couple of days then you can have them back. OK John?

Maybe some of you guys local to John could offer your services to scrub in all his tires? ;-)
