That so sick, looks like a lot of fun. Car looks great! You need some new videos of your runs with the new wheels!

**SABBAi** · 7-10-09, 6:17

your car looks great. Looks like it holds great speed mid corner.

Damn Carmen is a sexy bitch. Nice pictures.

Are you dragging mud flap in the first picture? That's so totally awesome.

Carmen looks awesome Ryan! I LOVE the 12th pic. Its dope how it shows the crazy width of the 245s, the 9wide RPFs on the front and the gnarley fender pull. Your car is definetly one of my favorite MX6s ever.

**RisenDevilz'6** · 7-10-09, 11:28

RYAN!!! good to see some more pics man! car looks like its goin strong as always

Are you smiling in that last pic? =P

And I never noticed Carmen had a black roof. Is this new..?

And nice pics. Got any higher res ones? The wider ones would be perfect for my laptop if they were a bit bigger period. *Nudge nudge*

Congrats on the nice finishes though.

Nice work, karma for bringing the 6 to the front.

That is just awe inspiring...

**cf_z** · 7-10-09, 16:03

scraping mudflap ftmfw.

although i must say i hate the new mazdaspeed/tire rack/some other hood sticker (obama?...

). unless tire rack is paying you (i'll just assume mazdaspeed isnt), i say loose them.

**concealer404** · 7-10-09, 16:46

The TireRack banner is required, as a sponsor of the series.

Nice car man. I will admit that i'm jealous. I haven't had a chance to do much with mine this season.

**BShark** · 7-10-09, 20:49

Wow, i'm having a hard time deciding which one is my favourite, they're all so good!

I4mx6 will love these pics, prob remind him of his own track days

You know...I'm not honestly sure...I think I need to check for damage!

Are you smiling in that last pic? =P

Oh Yeah!!

CF_Z, Concealer is correct, Tire Rack is the main sponsor of all National Solo and Pro Solo events, thus the banner. Same thing with all the other magnets. I don't get any money if I win, but must have them to race. Now the MazdaSpeed and Toyo magnets are contigency sponsors. IE I take 1st, 2nd or 3rd, They pay me money.

These two pictures

are from Farmington New Mexico where I won $800 in contigency money. I took 1st which is $300 from Toyo, and $200 from Mazdaspeed, and my co-driver took 2nd, $200 from Toyo, $100 from Mazdaspeed. The magnets/stickers are definitely worth it

Thanks for the compliments everybody! I wish I could give everybody a ride.

BTW, here's the full album to browse around:

Ryan, awesome pics man! I never did catch any photos of mine in 3 wheel mode, so be proud you have some to show! Those Enkeis are unreal too!

This thread makes me want to go get another one...Tempting...

I'll let you borrow Jadie for a year if you put the same mods on her as Carmen has, then sex them to make babies.
