Well, I am not sure if I posted this...but two months ago, I was on my way to meet Richard (rrobello) at a car meet. I was running late, and driving too fast. I wasn't watching my speed, and I got pulled over for doing 104mph on the freeway. I dropped my car off for new rims and tires today (18" black bullets, 255/45/18 and 285/40/18) and then had to go to court. Well, the judge suspended my license for 30 days. I do deserve the punishment, as I was going way too fast.
But, I couldn't drive my car home from the tire place....so mom had to do it. So my buddy and I followed her on the way home...and got some video. I hope you all enjoy it.
Sorry for the wind noise, but listen for the 2nd gear chirp at the end. (go Mom!)

Hey, Richard, you gonna trailer it to the show? LOL That sucks about your license, glad to see you taking it like a man...
Maybe you should let mom drive it to the show.. looks like she might get a couple of her own tickets though!!!
Sweet rims, car sounds pretty darn good as well.

Yeah, she already said she would drive it to the show. Not sure how long she would stick arround for. I wonder if there is a place to go shopping.

Nice to hear another Bassani Axelback! Great vid. Now that you have no active license :notnice: you will have more time to keep her clean!
Hope your insurance does not go up too much.

Excellent choice for the wheels Richard, couldn't have picked a better set myself. Your copper mustn't have been very friendly 'cause I'm sure you were (judging by your posts). But, you're taking it very well. Points for that in lots of peoples books!!
