I sure as heck wouldn't... I might run a repaired tire on the Fit until I could afford at least 2 new but definitely not on the S even for "regular" driving which as we all know does not really happen with this car

How the hell do people have the willpower not to put more miles on than that?

Those same people must be the ones who "forget to eat"

I have no willpower for not driving or not eating

^^ Almost time to build a new Stone Bridge Driver graphic

I'm thinking I will move the years to down the right side... and then maybe after another 3 event will have years on both sides...

Very interesting Not-for-profit agency. They help people in NH and parts of VT and MA get into a car while also coaching them in repairing their financial history. Best of all they ensure that people with poor credit are not subject to predatory lending practices and high interest rates.

Now I wonder where they were when I needed them

I can tell it is a.2000-2001 just by looking at the dash...
2002-2003 has an improved dash display
But that looks like one hell of a clean car!

What one does in autox is different, the loads are not at all the same, I would look for Mark's reply

Thanks Doug. Maybe I'll just have to order a new tire if going on track. Had the right rear on the Si develop a slow leak from a nail and got it fixed. I've got about 4k miles on them.
I plugged a Hoosier autocross tire on grid and was on course 3 minutes later. Continued to run the tire at autocross events for the remainder of the season with zero issues. I might not do it for a high speed track event, but I have no problem running a plugged tire at an autocross.
