I just bought your book this summer. Finished Grimshaw/Buffum's book this week,

We're running 14" 'Kooks on the Grp2 Capri (the Ford V6 has the 2 cyls you
Saabers are missing) in which we did the Ontario PRC series this year. Seems
that size was discontinued by them. Unrelated: Ever try Green Diamond snow
tires, with the sharp bits embedded in the rubber?
