So, I take it you do your own powder coating, based on the oven in your garage? If so, is it easy enough?

11.3@123mph on 195/75/14" whitewalls. Yes, 195s!
11.2 on the big giant slicks. What's the point? Maybe I'll go back to the whitewalls. They are lighter and have less rolling resistance.

Brian you are very observant. Yes that is the oven i use and it is very easy. Check out the Eastwood Company if you are interested in doing your own Powder coating.

Yeah, if I ever get the time/money to do my kitchen over, my oven won't find it's way to the curb, it will find a nice home in the garage. I'm actually wondering how bad the powder coating tastes. I don't use the oven that oven, I use the grill mostly. If it doesn't taste too bad, maybe I'll just do it when my wife isn't around.
Just kidding, but I do want to do my own parts.
