KROCK is NOWFM or some crap like that. Stern must have talked about it for an hour yesterday morning at the beginning of his show. Good to see you still lurking around here Brian.

You don't drive it much, so the tires may make it through the winter! If not they will be showing the belts and then you have studded tires.

what was all that white junk about this mornign, I thought the calendar said spring ?????? Anyway, I should have looked into this earlier, how many folks might like to take a tour of a microbrewery ? the one I am talking about is right in Fairfield, and has friday night tours starting at 5 pm, my guess is whatever they don't have time to bottle they "take on a tour" brewery is : http://www.crickethillbrewery.com/events.htm small place, sure not a ton to see, but a good chance to get out and do something different, and if it goes good we could find others to hit up as well. anybody got anything goin on this weekend ?

EDIT: well with all this moddin goin on, ya ready for this ? I bought a rail pressure gauge ! seems they are on sale at most distributors for 107 bux right now, shipped ! that is without the low pressure kit, but hey, its a start.

also, if anyone has the contact info from the guy in jersey that was selling the 315 70 17's , his add expired and I am trying to get in touch with him, I have aplaced a wanted add but that section seems to be hardly read. I think the tires were pro comp's. help a baldini racin slick brother out !
