  1. I realized as soon as I sprayed this stuff on my aftermarket black Moto Metals why it was free when I bought wheel cleaner. It says it turns to a white haze while drying, and then goes away once dry(15 mins later). I waited 30 minutes and my wheels were still white. Waited 15 more and couldn't take it. Turns out the stuff dried to like a crust and I had to get a towel from washing my fiance's Escape that was soaked and use it to remove all of it. Took about 30 minutes and was awful. I was really excited to see someone carrying this as I can't find, nor will I try to Meguires version locally after this mistake. I guess it might work okay for OEM or something, but I tossed it already and figured the 4.99 I spent on wheel cleaner I didn't need was a lesson learned.

    Old dog

    When we had to put our last one down, the dog knew. He hated the vet with a passion, and the day before he was going to have to be put down, dad was in the office where Geno would usually lay under his desk all day, and he wasn't there. Dad went to check on him, and he was laying in the foyer with his favorite toy next to him, passed on. They can tell when it's time, and if you know it is and have made the schedule a few days ahead of time, they will know. It's not cruel or mean to ensure their quality of life is what matters most.
  3. The obvious response here is hookers and blow, nothing else matters in life.
  4. Too late, Brandon's had about 366 already.

  6. Also, when its windy and open, they make traffic go one way only, cars must be on the non wind side of loaded semi's to block the wind and speed match. Not to mention the 8ft of snow they get up there every winter at Lake Superior State college and around.
  7. Just had this discussion at the barber shop today actually with 2 locals from MI that relocated when GM cut people before the buyout. Mack. is awesome, love the bridge, fort, Island, everything. Would be great place to take a fiance' lots of quaint shops, and nice places to eat and hangout. Frankenmuth is on the way or close enough to visit, cool place. Maybe hit the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village as well. A reminder the Ford plant was where a lot of the war efforts from WWII were taken care of and there's a rich history there of Ford and the plants assistance during the war. Dunes are cool for like 2 hrs, then unless you have an ATV, rent an ATV, or bring a crap load of beer, I would visit and leave. Some closer areas that are nice, are areas like West Bloomfield, Brooklyn if you're into Nascar and want to hit MIS.
  8. Saw this and was right behind/next to the whole event, and had he not had the required back protector on, game over severely. If I still rode st. I wouldn't get on a bike without it. I have a Bohn I got from Dubguy, feels like it would definitely protect, not as pretty as some of the new plastic exo skeleton kinda ones, but still really solid, and goes way down my ass to cover my tail bone.
  9. Thread closed. Life is first dude, track is second. KTMBrian had a great writeup in your "How do you pay for trackdays and racing" thread with the same info. If you have some CCD bills, and your house isn't finished, you need to get that shit in line first, then worry about moving/refinancing. I can tell you lending has gotten a shit ton more strict these days, finding a buyer, buying, selling, refinancing etc. ain't what it used to be. I know because I do this daily and have for almost 10 years. I've been there for both market situations, sellers and buyers market. It sounds like you know what you want, and how you have to get there. We are in the same boat somewhat, but luckily I have 2 lots that my house is on, and was able to put a huge pulloff for my enclosed and truck to park on this year. At the same time, we will be moving in the next 5 years and want a min. of 5 acres, maybe more. Building on it or built on it, and a ranch. We know what we want, so we are making the decisions and upgrades to our house now in order to get there in 5 years. Like Nick said, take care of life, the track will be there.
  10. Funny how he left that part out right?
  11. I can't wait! Especially for the after raceday musk from all of us guys in our 1 pc leathers after 2 days of non stop riding.
  12. I miss your musk. Going to make Beaver end of month?
  13. Yeah the twilight I ran last year, I wasn't even the slowest out there, there were some real real slow guys/gals that should probably not have been there. Actually I saw this at MS last event at Nelson too, some guy running Friday night ran me right off the track going into 4. I put it back on the track and called it a night since it was last session lol. Nick, Im not 100% out for this, just need to really see what's going on this month in relation to the wedding since I definitely want to run MS at Beaver end of the month. As always, I will keep you updated. PS The twilight we ran last year was awesome, no rain, sun, and I don't think any red flags at all.
  14. Got your PMs, price is def right, just need to see how much repair on my 1 set would be vs. buying a whole new set and getting it sprayed. If anyone is looking for track bodywork definitely get in here, the savings are great!
  15. First trip to ORD was about 10ish and loved it. Went up the Hancock tower that year, Sears tower a few years later. Hit the Pier up for the ferris wheel, mini golf, etc. Just make sure you Eat at Ed Debevics. Also FAO Schwartz would be like their paradise when you visit the towers. Oh and true deep dish pizza, forget the name, but some little place right on the river had some great pies. Could also catch a Cubs game too. Kids seem to enjoy about 7 innings of baseball, then they fall asleep lol.
  16. I won't be there for this, so I feel like a loser. Come to beaver end of june dude, you know you want to!
  17. I drilled through the hex head and wired it. Some used diaper pins, some didnt.
  18. Some of your recent comments make me feel like we are breaking up or you are trying to replace me? This makes me have sad face.
  19. Fixed that for you Chris. You just rejoined our fun dude, think of all the h*mo fun you can have with us!
  20. So basically I've been replaced already? I was still doing this for you during the SB races, well wait, Im running the AM one from here on out too now. So can we share him? Maybe he can bring some leather and whips?
  21. Its all going to depend who you talk to on this one. KTM Brian I believe posted some info about it.
  22. Congrats! Thinking we could combine these two threads??
