Mark, the back row of seating will be 15' fromthe screen... that's way too far to appreciate the detail of the monitor. A 60" monitor would be the smallest recommended for that distance. If a front row were to be added, you're looking at a distance of about 9'... good for a 50".
There is a GB on theater seating on AVSForum. If anyone's interested in some seriously good pricing SHIPPED, let me know and I'll throw the link up.
Right now it's time to decorate the bowling center.

I dunno man cuz I scared the hell out of myself the other day... i shifted from 1st to 2nd really hard and the car completely lost it... went sideways AT LEAST like 45-50 degrees to one side...eased off gas, went out to the other side a little and then leveled off...
Tires were completely warm. i had been driving for at least 30-45 mins... I was stopped for maybe 5 mins or so before I did this, but I didnt think that would be enough time for the tires to cool off...

Tires are comprised of many layers of rubber, steel and fabric. Due to these different components, your new tires require a "break-in" period to ensure that they deliver their normal ride quality and maximum performance. As tires are cured, a "release lubricant" is applied to prevent them from sticking in their mold. Some of the lubricant stays on the surface of your tires, reducing traction until it is worn away. Five hundred miles of easy acceleration, cornering and braking will allow the mold release lubricant to wear off, allowing the other tire components to begin working together.

Five hundred miles of easy acceleration, cornering and braking will allow the mold release lubricant to wear off, allowing the other tire components to begin working together. It is also important to note that your old tires probably had very little tread depth remaining when you felt it was time to replace them. As any autocrosser or racer who has tread rubber shaved off of his tires will tell you "low tread depth tires respond quicker." Don't be surprised if your new tires are a little slower to respond (even if you use the exact same tire as before). Their new, full depth brings with it a little more tread squirm until they wear down.
NOTE: Be careful whenever you explore the capabilities of your new tires. Remember that every tire requires a break-in period for optimum performance.
