I prefer my crappy all-season tires to be fresh, full-tread, and narrow.

The last time you "signed up" you needed a AAA pickup then sold the car due to a failed starter and an "intervention" by your family? So you must certainly be using an event credit from that event? :o

Not to worry. I always have a roll of electrician's tape, sand and some Duct tape for tires. OR you can just co-drive a car with brand new fat legal racing tires on fat light rims? Whatever works for your budget? Maybe we can use your car to run the computer and save gas?

Glad you're back!! You rock. :snore:

Loren will actually pay all his "bit coins" to race a "real" shithouse. Work that tooth.

Quoth the Raven: "Nevermore".

Suddenly there came a... lifter... tapping, slightly rapping all against the chevy block.

Were it Ford so over bored: "Quoth the Raven nevermore."

Poe flunked out of West Point. I never got to the Point.

I'd worry that Doug hears the tell-tale heart, but the rotary heart beats not...it goes "hmmmmm".
