My dog is a 75 lb tornado that would destroy couches if he were aloud on them. He is always pawing and scratching at his bed until it is just right, I can imagine him doing the same thing on the couch.

[QUOTE=blueosprey90,Feb 16 2011, 11:34 AM] Aashish,

Regarding CART

I'm almost positive that you would be able to do Lime Rock and/or Pocono with the Civic Si.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
16" wheels are too small for this car.
18" wheels are too big.
17" wheels are juuuuuuust right

My cats only sharpen their claws on their stuff, that's the way I trained them
They have a 4.5' tall Maple tree truck that they love, and also their cat stand I call their entertainment center

hey! I have flesh wounds to prove otherwise

Ganzo dug his claw into my knee as he used it as a launch pad and then thanks to catnip poked me on my toe.
