I think I got too much sun during my 800-mile weekend
OMG, the grip of these Hankook R-S3 is awesome
They clearly need 500 + miles on them before they start to really grip
The KSRT roads for this year have indeed been a test
When these things start to talk you are indeed pushing it extremely hard
Hey Aash, you happy with the Evos you put on the Si?

The tires are good. I got around 1500 miles on the EVO's by the time I got to the Dragon and they were very comfortable. The RS-3 would have been ideal for the Dragon, but considering that there is a big haul between Upstate and the Dragon I'd probably have used up a 1/3rd of the tread if I had the RS-3's. The EVO's are not quite as inspiring as the RS-3's but very close and the road noise is much lower.
it feels good to be back home. Just catching up on sleep and getting ready to head back into the grind from tomorrow

Glad you are home safe and sound Aashish! It's been awful quiet here without you 
3 hours of cleaning this morning. Holy crap. Hopefully it will not be so bad on July 25th when I am here alone with no A/C the day after we move out.
My current plan is to get up that day with Tom at 2 or 3 am and come here and clean while it's still reasonably cool...
Am I concerned about vacuuming at 3 am and disturbing the neighbors? No - not really

Road noise?
I got none, or, it's so much less than the screaming VTEC through the Magniflow I don't notice it
Must be a OEM exhaust issue you are dealing with
