It sounds just like Elvis but that is not who is singing. Hence the question. I may rep you the answer later. GaleForce gets one for Get out of the way I do not care if you pass me, but then go, do not slow me down.

I put the camera back today but fog, then road constrution limited my fun.

New tires installed today. So on my drive home I turned on my camera for the first time in awhile and I do find that I talk to traffic a little bit. An SUV was slow in a 55MPH zone.

Bonus question for rep point. Who am I listening to (after road construction)?

370Z Testing Out The New Michelins - YouTube

Conway Twitty? :icon17:

Edit* Was it Perry Como? I just saw that he covered that song...

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 :icon17: Btw... I was hoping for video of you doing this. Remember that for when the tread gets low on the PSS's :tup:

New rear tires for me as well, I mounted up some s-04 pole positions and threw her on the rack to line it up. Its pouring rain unfortunately, grr.

When are you going to start your own build thread? ;)

Joepro 09-27-2012 09:00 PM

With winter coming up the car will get stored, and it has been slow at work... almost done for now, just a few more things before winter!

Even brand new and pouring rain these tires hooked up really well, I am excited for some dry roads :happydance:

I did tape my hooliganism but even I think it wrong to post. :icon17:
I did not exactly fail I do not get the joy most others do from staying stationary and smoking tires.

It is the stock steering wheel. Still no one has figured out the singer. I knew who I was listening to and I thought it was Elvis as well. I will rep everyone the answer so you win just by playing, as long as my reps hold out.

Driving home today was a stark contrast from yesterday. Just another car in a string.

:iagree: I think I would definitely have more fun setting up some cones to figure 8 around or something similar :driving:

I did this last night after work...except I was using light poles at either end of the abandoned parking lot as apexes....getting a feel for what kind of feedback this car gives at varying levels of grip....and then doing some big slides just for fun.

GaleForce 09-28-2012 03:12 PM

Ordered gauges today :tup:
  • Defi oil temperature
  • Defi oil pressure
  • Defi boost 1.2 bar
  • Defi gauge controller
