I am getting new tires in the morning so I tried to use up my rears. It is so unnatural for me, I gave up after three goes. I then launched myself with hot sticky tires. That was fun. I wish I had a timer as I hit 60 faster than usual.

I'm considering doing this, though I have a feeling its going to go about the same: 3-4 failures then give up. Maybe I'll just wind up doing some donuts in the parking lot

Btw... I was hoping for video of you doing this. Remember that for when the tread gets low on the PSS's

KSFastah · 09-26-2012, 08:15 AM

Drove to work in a pounding rain....pulled into the south end of the parking lot like usual and all at once the rain just quit....I said a big THANK YOU to Mother Nature and walked on into the office happy and dry.

KSFastah · 09-26-2012, 12:33 PM

Took it out for some wet pavement, VDC off, out in the rural country side flogging over my lunch.

Big time fun.

SurfDog · 09-26-2012, 06:11 PM

Embarrassed.

Will do tomorrow probably.

Been busy kite-surfing and VDC offing!!!!

Getting the megan subframe brace, whiteline rear end links and GTM oil cooler installed by Seb @ Specialty Z. Dropped the car off at around 9, gonna pick it up after work.

FI CBE in the next two weeks, we'll see how fast tony does his thing...
