This last week I blackened my nuts,
pics to follow
To give detail, I’m surprised how grey and dull they get as they age, anyway, pictures tell it all,
Gave them a good clean then used Bilt-Hambers Hydrate 80 (rust killer barrier system) to rust convert and Ruskins heat resistant Matt black top coat.
By way of process I removed 2 opposing nuts from each wheel so cleaned, dipped and painted over about 24 hours, replaced, removed another pair, then finally the locking nuts. So did them all over about a week.

Installed new side graphics this weekend. Sourced from AHA Graphics in Morocco (of all places). Excellent quality stuff.
I’m fairly certain the graphics are good for an additional 15-20 HP.

Just came in after 4th session of the day. 140 track miles so far. May go out one more time before heading home.
NCM tornado damaged structures are now finally rebuilt and back in operation!
This was a Kentucky Region PCA (out of Louisville) event for experienced drivers. It was their first DE at NCM. They did a super job - great bunch of guys!
