This describes my car on v710's perfectly. The rear end seems to come around on street tires though. I guess that I could tighten the konis on the front a little.
I had an autox today, the car is soooo good on race rubber right now, I'm almost scared to mess with it.

Well our situation has changed. Dr's now ordering chemo for the wife. I will not confuse you with the details. Prognosis is good. They all agree on that. 2nd opinon confirmed the need. So we will start it soon. Damn.
I still may be able to make this event(Dr's say it may be good for my wife to go to Savannah--with friends etc) but we will have to just wait and see. Keep you fingers crossed for us and we dont get to come I will be doing a self made highspeed autocross one man event in the dr's parking lot.

Well, looks like I will have to put my LiveStrong bracelet back on. I'm having lunch today with a very good friend of mine that finished 4 chemo sessions, post op and has been signed off on a clean bill of health! Today's medicines and treatmens are amazing and I'm confident, as with Jim, that all will be well. Good luck in the treetments and keep us posted.

Wife start Chemo next week and i will have a sexy baldheaded women for a wife in a few weeks after that! Things are shaping up so far, that if they continue, then I will be able to make this event. Of course you never know but I am hopeful. Roebling is so much dang fun.
Ya'll ever hear that country song about a fella diag with a terminal disease and how he starts living afterward? Riding bulls and skydiving etc? Point is all of this that is happening to us reminds us to live the day to the fullest (unfortunaly responsibilites continue) as possible. So instead saying it doesnt look like I can make it, I am saying it looks like I can unless something bad happens. My wife, God Bless her, says the same. Can't let yall have all the fun!
I wonder if the instructor i had at RA this pat time will be there? Anyway to find out?

OD - best wishes for the Mrs and her treatment. Indeed you give sage advice. It is important to enjoy life to the fullest (while still being responsible). I was talking to my wife last night and she is so thrilled that I am finally doing things that I enjoy rather than what I think other people want me to do.
BTW - I never request an instructor. I like the luck of the draw. It also allows you to get feedback from multiple people and learn something form everyone. Just my opinion of course.
