Flag football tore me up last year, 3rd degree ac joint separation of my left shoulder, otherwise I'd be in. Being older sucks sometimes.

Rangers for the win. I'm a big baseball fan and am loving this postseason. I even have a red claw and antlers shirt I picked up at the ballpark this past Sunday. It's cool to walk around with it on and see little kids recognize what it's about.

Office Olympics this week, Breast Cancer awareness, and today was spirit day so everyone brought a food from their Office Olympic team country of origin. Today's event is chair dancing, it'll be interesting to see if we can compete without risking getting fired lol.

Pics later, possibly. So far we have had chair races, notebook toss, and trash can ball events. Our team won silver and bronze in two events, didn't place in the third. Was soundly beaten by a bunch of girls lol.

@fith - We used to have chili competitions at work every three months at my old office. Was nice! Except for the aftermath and the fact you wanted to take a nap after lunch.

@Jake - Nice! Be sure to post up some pics once finished.

Yeah I had already decided on the RE11's I just wanted to see if anyone could come up with an arguement for another tire that might change my mind.

Yeah, brembo = too expensive.
Willwood = great desgin, just has a lack of actual race use data

StopTech = The Winner

OEM brembos can be had for cheap?? whatcha talking about? decent pad selection and mount right up with no adapter brackets.

Wilwoods have way better pad selection and definitely hold up.....

stoptechs with their aluminum hats give it a thumbs down for me for rears with the ebrake/handbrake, but the cost of them would put the others first.

For TAttack i would put wilwood kit top of the list as you can get 6 pot wilwood front.

Nexx gets a +1, I was looking at the GT's and even at my prices they are too expensive for me to be able to make it to Red Line next year.

StopTech is actually ran by over half of the teams in Redline, there is just a ton of actual use data on them and they are a decent price. Willwood has great selection and price but just the lack of use data is what got me away from them.

The StopTech kit I have coming is a 6/4 with 355mm rotors.
