Yes sir. Only 2 options for us brembo guys in a 17". Bogarts or welds. Both way to expensive if you ask me.

Yeah, I can't wait to see it either. Apparently Whipple is awaiting a parts shipment, so I won't receive the blower until next week sometime. This Friday will make 3 weeks since I ordered it

Just tell me you didn't get it from a shop in Florida and you'll be ok.... Some folks down that way in some serious trouble with Whipple right now and have customers waiting 3 MONTHS......hopefully not your ordering source.

I know these are rare in these parts but let me know if you know anybody that wants to trade! Otherwise, out comes the paint can.

Hit up BigSquirrel....he's the only one in town with A set.....

We will see. These are for "racing use only" but I drove around on the back rims a lot last summer. My backs have full blown slicks right now and I know how soft they are. Once those are bald I will go back to DRs and drive on the streets more.

That's the plan anyway.

So you have plain lights now?

[raidernation3017]

Not yet I havnt had time to put them in. I scored a set they are like brand new

It's worth a shot, but I know he has them installed on his black stripes so I would think he would want them black as well? Worth a shot though.

No problem, not to late at all. I usually stick around for a while. I have some visitors who are there looking to buy parts so I was waiting on them anyway.

[Ivan @ Southwest Speed]

2 hour snow delay......pfffft.

Rio Rancho clear out, ABQ has a dusting. Who makes these calls BTW?? Anybody know anybody?

Speaking of rants....did you know that you aren't allowed to send mail (USPS) out from anywhere other than where it's addressed from? Yup, guess who got a certified letter in the mail for sending out mail from an address other than mine?

So...

.......collection boxes?
.......netflix from work?
.......dropping off a parcel at a post office location?

Those aren't "originating locations" either are they? Nobody confirms my postage or contents there. Hum.

I think they just don't like me.

Hello UPS...(sorry LV)

Ut oh! Hopefully the Event Planners can keep an eye on this and see if they have to cancel or ??

Good thing is that the weather people in the 505 absolutely suck and hardly ever get anything right.

Wasn't it supposed to snow Tuesday? LOL

When we installing them skinnys and halos Vince?? Let's roll!

[AngelSpeedFreak]

Tires are mounted, I just need to go down and get them. Full slicks in the snow might not be the best idea but I'm sure I've made worse decisions before

I have driven to work on slicks a few times but I get a little worried about good ole RRPD since I drive by the police station twice a day....

Actually my proposal would be that he could take my IOM's and then plastidip them if he still wants them black... If he gets tired of black, peel them away for the IOM. Sounds like a win-win to me
