Speaking of burning money, Vickers almost burnt the Le Mans 458 Ferrari to ground about 30 min ago with a locked up flat tire trying to get back to the pits.

Used or new? Gotta be someone around here with those tire sizes.

I should be receiving my tires in a few days. Ordered the Sumi's for the front.

What brand and how much are they?

BTW, I'd totally get this if I could afford it.

My HS and college car was a 71 Buick Skylark with a 350-2bbl, dual exhaust, 2-door, royal blue paint. I'm feeling nostalgic.

At least I can say that I never came back. I just started the family here. However, the wifey is 'back.'

Rain again. Really? I think I'm just going to start mowing grass every dry day we get.

You and I both. Trying to hold off on getting new rear tires till after proving grounds. I took the Z over to a friends house today in savage and my rear end did not want to stay still on straight roads with the rain, constantly hydoplanning at only 45mph

Yeah, guys. Better get new tires soon or you won't be doing any driving.

Not bad, Travis. Sounds like it's turning into a track car.

That's going to be first priority when I get back from proving grounds. I'll probably end up using the money on my next paycheck that will have 72 hrs of OT on it....

Good god just noticed the price on my exhaust that I have went up $600 http://intensepower.com/hksduhititex.html They're out of their goddamn minds...
