I was running Michelin Pilot Roads, and recently switched to the Road 3s. They are a dual compound Sport/Touring tire.

Pardon my ignorance, but is a 675 the Daytona or the Street/Speed Triple?

Super close - mapquest says 25 minutes... but the carting web site says "The cost for this program is $225"
Not in this lifetime and not with my own money

Spent a few hours over at the new place last night cleaning. Tom volunteered to go back to the current apartment and get a 2nd load rather than help me clean Big surprise there - not!

I spent another 2 hours this afternoon. Got the kitchen "Ellen approved" clean and the bathroom.

Sprayed all around the perimeter of the house with bug spray including a "fumigation" of the basement. Tom sweep up down there. I hate bugs and spiders turn me into a screaming little girl

matter of fact Heather (formerly of Formula H) works as their business development manager. Maybe she could get us a discount I think doing this will be cheaper than a track day for me.
