Loren...I've already told you what to do about shipping your wheels. Drop them off at the Fedex distribution center on Jurupa.

Also. I have your new exhaust sitting in my garage. I picked it up on my way home from work yesterday.

i paid $30 per wheel w/ tires via fedex......... $115 per wheel is bending you over and doing you without lube!



and yeah, she pulls from almost 4k all the way through redline..... its nice! and the power is on tap right when i need it... very little turbo lag

that prank is actually a group of actors who do various public events that draw intrest. the are the ones who start new pants on the subway in NY as well.

Mirna quoted me $48 per wheel with UPS. and i alwasy seem to have people ask for shipping quotes but it doesnt get far from there.

That was almost funnier than the video.
Any improv group that starts a "New Pants" on the Subway campaign is not very entertaining.
Haha...
It's "No" Pants on the Subway, and they've doing it for 8 years.

Nascar

So last Friday i found out i got two sky box tickets to the fontana race on Sunday. A friend of mine loves nascar so i took him with me. Man what a blast. I am not a NASCAR fan but i do respect them now. the seats (booth) were awesome, the food was great its too bad the weather didnt cooporate. i was able to take a long lunch break on monday to see the finish of the race.
10:30-11:30 on sunday
11:30-1:30 on monday

i have more pictures but i thought these best respresented the day. oh and we saw ZZ Top.

Hay Loren, if you want those tires.

Buy them from me.

I have 1000 miles on mine and want to go back to to 245x18 because they are a little taller. I keep hitting every driveway now.

Its the SSC Aero TT.











http://www.shelbysupercars.com/
The SSC Ultimate Aero sets the benchmark for supercars today. Achieving tremendous power via its twin turbo V-8 engine, it produces 1,183 horsepower and 1094 ft.-lbs. of torque making the Ultimate Aero the world’s most powerful production car. Combining this proprietary power plant with a lightweight, aerodynamic body and the best handling systems available SSC delivers a vehicle that not only eclipses all other cars but stands OFFICIALLY as the "World’s Fastest Production Car". Simply put, there is no other production car that can match the performance of the Ultimate Aero.
PDF Spec Sheet: http://www.shelbysupercars.com/downl...Cspecsheet.pdf

It runs the quarter mile in 9.9 seconds at 144mph, and does 0-60mph in 2.78, almost as fast as my FC. I want to see Top Gear race the Aero TT vs. the Veyron.
