We are counting on you and JJ to visit us the following Saturday afternoon 30th ? and go to Pure City with us!

We are only 6 miles from there after we move
If you are counting then who will do the moving



I would have come except we need to get started on projects of our own. Will pitch the lunch idea to the boss.

I think if you Crazy Marc and Jeff all showed up in your pickups, the move would be done in a jiffy

Must be a OEM exhaust issue you are dealing with
You are just used to the noise is all. The very first time I drove with the Evo it felt eerily quiet and I missed the noise of the RS-2.

People that have not used the RS-2 or 3 in the past and went direct to the EVO believe it is waay better than the OEM Michelins. IMHO the RS-3/2 is a street legal track tire and the EVO is more of a grand touring tire with good grip.

Experienced some hydroplaning yesterday in the stretch between Binghamton and Albany, but the tire can't be faulted for that. Rain was coming down like it was the Canadian Grand Prix.

You don't want to know what my steep moving fee is

Besides, I'd have to bring along the critter in my avatar to "help"

I'd rather replace a AMC Gremlin heater core than move...

I rented a 26' foot truck - no need trucks - need bodies

Hopefully we will be bribing some of the guys from Formula H to come and help. Beer, pizza and cash

For good or bad, it will only be "big stuff" on moving day. I will have anything that "Fits" already over there before the big move.

19 days!

The greatest thing just happened! So I'm driving the S2k to work this morning and going down broadway i pass a cop sitting there on the side of the road, he's looking at my car, catches the plates and then beeps his horn and waves to me. That completely made my day
