  1. There's some rust on it, I think you lie about how old they are.
  2. I'm sure you'd do better with 225s but that'll limit your tire choices, and those really need to be on a wider rim to maximize the contact patch, like a 15x8. The car will not perform very well with staggered tires, so if you do go to 225s put them all the way around.
  3. You do not want staggered tires on a Miata. Stick with a good set of 205-50s, I had some good runs with R888s last year, but they only lasted a season and I didn't have a lot of miles on them. Not sure how much mileage you want out of them, or if they see a lot of weather but those would be other factors to consider. If you'll mostly be street driving and doing some autox I'd stick with a performance summer tire, a lightweight Miata will have trouble getting heat in a competition tire.
  4. Let me say that I think this bike is excellent, but my life has thrown me some curve balls (of which I am not going to discuss so don't ask) so I need to get rid of it. I am taking steps to pay it off and get the title, but that will take me at least a couple weeks from now. The motorcycle has 78 miles on it, and is basically brand new. I have installed an integrated taillight, handlebar mirrors, fender eliminator, flush front turn signals, and a Vance and Hines CS one slip-on. I will have a power commander for it next week. The bike retails for $8900, I will list it at $8900 now. All stock parts to go with bike as well as the upgrades. Serious inquiries only, any other crap can be kept to yourselves. Now some pics. http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/ND2RACE/CIMG0419_zps28220cc7.jpg http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/ND2RACE/CIMG0421_zps6f5abc0e.jpg http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/ND2RACE/CIMG0422_zpsc6f8716a.jpg http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/ND2RACE/CIMG0423_zps218571ce.jpg http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/ND2RACE/CIMG0424_zpsa8cdc8d7.jpg
  5. Not sure I'd have shared that with the world, one of those things I'd be happy I walked away from and left in the past.
  6. I usually don't fight a ticket like that, if you were going 70 when the speed dropped to 55 then there isn't much to fight. If you have points on your license it may be worth it to you to try and keep the points off. Sounds like a typical dick of a cop, couldn't even try to communicate with you. Was it state highway patrol?
  7. Needs more f-body.... ...but seriously its a good video.
  8. So you get him to join without telling him that he should post pics? If Waggs knows you I guess you can't be all bad.
  9. Was going to post this. Well for Paul its a 2 hour project.
  10. So I bought this bike and I'd like to go race it at Trails, what do I need? I've only been down the track on a bike a couple times and I just put on their gear so obviously I need a leather jacket, gloves, helmet, and long pants, but what at the cutoffs? Like how fast can you go before you need full leathers? Can someone explain any ratings that I need, like grade of leather or helmet? A magazine tested my bike and it went something like 11.80 at 117, so I don't forsee needing full leathers but I'm not positive of anything. Since I don't plan on taking the bike much I don't want to buy stuff I don't need. Any info would be helpful.
  11. Saw your Vette, didn't get to meet you, hopefully see you at a few more.

    Ahh CR

    Glad I could be your deuchbag master mechanic. Have a good day.
  13. Considering the IQ of some of the members I think the picture book intro was perfect. Welcome to CR.
  14. None of them bothered me when it was confined to just a couple threads in the kitchen. It's when the bullshit spills out and makes the whole site stink.
  15. I'll have you know that I work every day with my cold bare hands, and I have the stains and scars to prove it. A pretty boy I am not.
  16. Hey everyone look, its the world beater. Have fun walking anybody gimp.
  17. Just another reason to not trust cops. Just as dumb as the rest of the idiots on the highway.
  18. Why does this make me think of Paul?
  19. When are we going to set up your car and tune it?
  20. Yeah, thats why the fender eliminator kit was already ordered.
