        Looks good Cate! 924 is coming along and seems to fly slower than 509. The 325 Hp is no problem. Soon we'll be camping. My 7" tires look pretty wimpy. May have a buyer for 509.

          Scott, I am selling my 29's if you're interested. I got a set of 26's like Smokey.

                Is that a 29x11x10, on a 10" wheel?

                Cate really like the tires! I've tried to search for the Gar Aero adapters on Google but I haven't found a site that explains how they really work. Can you recommend one?

                  Best I can tell, the Gar Aero setup was all the rage before the big smooth tires came along. One good thing about them is the tires are less $$$ and last longer on asphalt. The bad thing is they are heavy and have tread that can grab rocks, to be flung into your fabric at a later time. You can get the tread ground down.
                  The other issue is they have tubes so you run a higher psi and might want to make some sort of rimlock, not difficult. I'm running 19psi and they feel surprisingly very good on hard surface runways. They are very nice on rough stuff.
