Oh yeah! Won't forget that one where numerous records were broken <cough>Hope you had fun
I thought about it but seeing all the salt damage on the rims of the Saturn when I got new tires this week I decided RC will stay in until the roads are washed down. Then again if a certain GP on exahusts goes through RC will have to come out!

I had to get new tires for the GTP today. Lets just say i finsished the old ones off before she went in. (tires were FLAT when i was done ) The old ones went out in style. I wanted to go home and swap the fronts and rears but didnt have time.

OK I took RC out around the Condos and went double the posted-does that count?
Oh the posted is 10 mph
If I had insurance it would have been very tempting to take him on the roads!
