Tires..they getting expensive

Postby Solar » Sat Feb 09, 2013 2:01 am

Checking out a set of RS3's, wow ! Everyday the price goes up and up ! I finally had to pull the plug and get a new set when the getting was good.

You know you own a "racecar" when you have put close to 10,000 miles on the car and you're looking at your 3rd set of tires ! 8-)

My days of driving the Nissan as a slight daily driver are DONE !!! (dammit, I love my Miata)

because racecar 8-)

I was going to get some new Rivals. BUT I figured all the local dogs would chase and eat my new meats so why bother. I'll stick with Toyo's and RS3's. :grin: Nobody like black licorice.

When are you going to bring Shamu out to play again? I've got something for you.

But your grey car isn't in my class.
I wanted to show you how well my tires work and how shamu won't be able to keep up with my 'signature' car.

OHHHHH. You want to open up a can of whompass on Shamu :pointlaugh: Like when I used to work and smuggle home a surprise for the little woman under a hat :rolling:

I got Lee Iacocca to sign my dash so it will be a close race. AND my limited edtion car is #256182 whoohoo!! A signature event in the making.

Since I'm a nice guy I looked around and found a Carrol Shelby signed ignition control module for Shamu. I know how much you like his signature on my car.

Frankly I could give a rats a.., but you brought it up the last time we where at St. Pete so I guess it's some kind of fetish or something.

Limited edition means nothing. I could care less if it's 1 of .....

Yes Mike you are a nice guy :thumbwink:

AND you have a way cool car!! Way cooler than anything I will ever own.

I met a young guy yesterday in Tavares @ Martin event who actually won a "one" off new mustang that has everything in the FOMOCO speed equipment catalog on it. It cost him only $17k in taxes and he was moaning about that a little. :chuckle: Can he drive it well after his FWD econobox with 500HP+ at the wheels? Yes he drove it well but not very fast yet.

I would welcome a Shelby anything for Shamu :binky: Even a signature to make it worth more.
