If I get the schedule I want, I'll only have four days a week. Really sucks that I only have one 50 minute class on fridays. Spend twice as long driving as I do in class.

Hey Nate did you hear, they might build a Race Track in Arden Hills, where the new Vikings stadium was going to be built.

There have been rumors for years. Previously it was supposed to be in columbus/lino lakes, but it never went through. Would be nice if it actually happened though!

I put 100k on my '00 before retiring her to the driveway, just waiting to be reborn (with 2 more cylinders). And I've put 26k on my '05 Escape since I got it in May 2011.

Trying to decide on LCAs.

Steeda - amazing deal with 20% off and free shipping:

Alluminum:
http://www.steeda.com/store/steeda-a...d-mustang.html
Billet steel:
http://www.steeda.com/store/steeda-l...d-mustang.html

Maximum Motorsports:
http://www.maximummotorsports.com/st...roducts_id=518

Not looking for anything for drag racing or anything extreme. It's just a DD but I want better handling and traction.

I'd probably lean towards the MM, what with the spherical bearings and all

Need to see pics of you in Santa's lap. And trust me, your mom will be the only woman to ever utter the words "you're too big".

I bought the MM lowers for my 94, and the things were a piece of art. I never put them on since I sold them to buy my 00 GT, but I would say that the build quality was second to none. Steeda has been around for a long time, and I'm sure they make good parts, but first hand I know that the products MM produces are top notch.

I have some MM stuff too, and I agree.

I've never heard anything negative about MM. Seems like if you dont/cant go Griggs, then they're the solid second choice, not knocking Steeda in anyway.

I have their STB and CC plates, which are all really nice. I also have Steeda sport springs which I love as well. So hard to choose.

Not really interested in griggs. I think they're more than what I need.
