Re: Floor carpeting edhesive

Do you think if you cleaned things well enough that a double sided tape would work, something like a 3M product?

Re: Better Head Choice for my 406?

Thanks for the info Steve! I was thinking it would turn 7200-7500 through the traps. I see Weingartner Racing also sells and ports the china castings like the Profiler heads.. With that said, Promaxx has a new 225cc "aluminum" head out that they claim is CNC ported in the USA and also cla...

Re: Buy a Racing helmet

I like this place: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/
I purchased the HJC CL-17 helmet, very comfortable and I like the pin system on the face shield.
Meets all the spec's from NHRA and doesn't hurt your wallet.
