Scary? How so?

Scary like a monster? Or scary like complicated?

hey Kyle, thanks for the heads up for the center fog grille. I spent all my money on Christmas so I have to wait.



I do like the shift **** but I'm leaning on the grabberpony Vista Blue **** when I can afford it...

I thought it just looks mean. Something that you could drive around and scare kids and ol' ladies.

I've looked into those. They're very pricey though. I'm sure that's no problem for "big balla" Jed.
I just went to the calculator again and got this data that I didn't post earier

255/45
Revs/mile 746

255/50
Revs/mile 719

It sounds like the 50s would lower the rpms a little... maybe enough to get it outta the drone range at 80 ??

Hmm....I wonder if it would look goofy with the extra big sidewall. If it lowered the rpms even just a couple hundered that would be awesome.

Well the 50s are the same as you have on your car so it shouldn't look funny?? I dunno. Make a run to your local tire peddler and see if they have any tire that size and roll it next to your car to see what it'd look like???


I made my first vid. No titles and I could work on the transitions a little better.

Hmmm... your right for some reason I thought we had 55 or something bigger.

I guess I'll go to the local discount tire later this week and see if they have the two sizes I want so I can see them side by side.

Sweet vid.

Everything is going in the right direction.
Glad to hear it's finally coming close to being dialed in.

How come the pile gets smaller and smaller every year, yet we spend more and more money???

Guess the gifts get tinier and more expensive!

"Biggest" gifts this year for Ashley (9):

iPod Nano
Hannah Montana Tickets (3 for us to go in Orlando) - and I also nabbed 4 more for the second show in Orlando and 4 for the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to sell! All shows sold out in less than 2 minutes on Ticketmaster. I have quick fingers...
