If you cruise down to the SE, stop by and I will throw some tires in your car.

Well that's a heckuva nice offer there FTD, it is truly appreciated. A few years ago my cousin came to my house for a winter gathering in his then new Boxster. I was all ga-ga over it so he took me for a spin....literally. He accidentally looped it going around a left hander in my neighborhood, we spun off the road in between trees, mailboxes and a fire plug coming back out onto the road pointing perfectly in the same direction we were traveling, no exageration. He later said he saw God lol. Funny thing is he wasn't goosing it or on it, the car snapped without warning. The red car behind the covered car (GTO 6 speed) just had new Michelin Alpins put on her (I have an extra set of wheels for it for the winter), tires make ALL the difference. Thanks again.....Mark.
