... and we turned some very quick laps! We tested a set of “Westlake Sport” tires.

I've heard of Westlake tires, they sell 'em at WalMart down here. 
Curious what the difference in lap times would be?

On a 2:06.0 lap at Shannonville (long course) the Westlake easily matched the Firestone Indys. The Toyos are about 1 second a lap faster.

Purchased some battery terminals for the '69 Mach 1 that allow my large cables to be soldered to them. It really cleaned up the battery area and should help with the "hot engine-slow crank" issue I had.



Also installed some new horns, the PO [before my brother] painted them and it was peeling. I don't think they should be painted so I just sprung for some re-pops. 
Now ready for the annual Mustang car show in August!
