As far as the shift ****... not sure. Although when I was looking at buying my 8 a couple years ago there were a couple cars on the lot missing their shift *****. So if you're the cleptomaniac type I'd say that would be a good source for a ****.
Otherwise try Rosenthal/Finishline. Although I know a replacement isn't cheap, so good luck.

Sorry guys I am still trying to recover from Cohwer leaving the Steelers.
Drdiaboloco, I am a STL transplant so I can't comment on which tires to use. I am sure Waterlogged, Baseballgenius80, Teretsboy, Snowborder4life, or Fisherdn could advise you better than I could. Make sure you let us know when you arive though so we can get together.

Bears fans are ok, as long as it doesn't come down to Chiefs v. Bears in the Super Bowl
And owning snow tires in STL is a waste of coin, we don't have winters anymore.

Yeah, I agree with the lack of winters in STL. I kept my FWD car (not worth the trade) thinking I'd need it in case of a bad snow and not being able to get around in the 8 in the winter. After sitting around for a year and motoring along just fine in the RX-8 I've loaned the FWD car out just to keep it running and maintained.
As far as tires to get through the winter, I just have a set of high performance all-season treads that wrap around a set of OEM rims when I don't have the "race" tires and rims on in the warmer months.

OK.
Does Saturday 3pm sound good? I think the Indy vs Balt game starts at 3:30 then the Phila vs NO game starts at 7pm.
I will be watching both but don't know how much time you guys have. I will supply the food.

Anyone else headed over to Chico's this weekend for some brew and ball? I'll most likely be able to be there at 3ish for the Colts game. I need to root on my "twin".

I'll get us some Steel Reserve 40's in paper bags so we can drink in style.
