Yeah, they're done. I'm not giving them my business anymore.

I think a big meet for the end of September is in order. Wanna host it at your lot?

Dude so far I LOVE living in Minnesota. I have been real busy at work and trying to find a place so I haven't been able to go to any meets. Yesterday I went to the state fair and then went to a killer party got a bit sh!ted then just chilled out today.

Now that I have an application in an apartment and I'm totally finished up in Boston I can definatly make most any meet in September.

Damn, Alex. Just buy new tires! lol

After being in SoCal and seeing all the fires and brown dirt, I'm glad that we have so much green here. Still don't like the cold weather here though.

I feel old today.

Umm I did about 2 months ago, the 2 autocrosses and about 10k miles with a lot of negative camber really killed the inside of my tires.

Check Ebay- You can usually find a good deal on a pair of used ones. No reason to get a brand new set until you fix the camber issue. I had a similar issue and just picked a set up off of ebay for $120.00

Alex, it sounds like we both need a camber kit. After my alignment, Jeff said I still need to get adjustable camber kits. Dammit.

BTW, I think I've put on about 2k miles this year. At least I'll beat last year's mileage...

I also turned 40 today. I feel old and creepy.
