Uranus is still a planet.
Since some silly ass decided to keep a 4 door car in C Stock with no torque or big HP I put the WD summer Continentals back on the RX8 for rain days in S1.

Vette has got some tread left on the Bridgestones for at least 5 events when a lot of people show up? NOT.

Then there is the surprise for the girlie boys in some other S class. My wife saved a toilet repair box for a dick holster to cover it with a mosaic. Be prepared boyscouts.

I was gonna comment on this whole 2028 thing and how, jeez, I'm just hanging here, minding my own business, and then I read The Mayor's post above, and then I got to the last paragraph and I had to sit down and rest...

I'm removing "BE SMOOTH" and putting on "BE AGGRESSIVE"... I realized that I'm smooth by nature and it's hurting my ability to get up to speed on a course quickly. This coming season I'm going to try to get fast quickly then work on clean runs.

You're going to have a hard time explaining that "Be Aggressive" sticker over your speedo when you get stopped for speeding.

Only at first!

Then I'll clean it up later on!

The other bonus is that it covers up the check engine light...
