Are the hours or miles a typo? Almost 1000 miles in 8 hours would mean an average of almost 125 MPH.

If true, you are my hero.
Yep 998 miles to be exact. Was going to drive to NC, made it to the state line then changed my mind went to VA Beach, Norfolk, and drove some more. Then drove back home I did reset the miles driven after I filled up at the state line so I'll say about 10-11 hours.

I ended up in Oxford MD today. Had to pick up a friend in Annapolis. She's never seen the bay bridge so I took her over that and we just kept going East. Good drive. Zero traffic. Ended up a ferry landing then headed back to DC.

I got a line on some Motegi MR126 in black or white, flow-formed 19x9.5 for $100 each. Sounds like you need some training wheels.

Those are pretty nice.

I hadn't driven it in about a week because....well it has been raining and the other car was already dirty. I took it out yesterday in between rain showers. I merged onto the interstate from the onramp and noticed I was at about 120 at the same time that I got a KA to the rear alert on the detector. I quickly backed out of it and some guy in a Malibu decided to pass me and almost ran a truck off the road passing him as he zipped in and out between cars. The blue lights lit up and the cop flew by me to stop the Malibu. I sure hope he didn't get a ticket for speeding at 120.

Of course not the greatest because I didn't have time to really clean it yesterday so I did what I could after work today. Not perfect but better than before. I'll learn one day. Without smudge or fingerprints. I got a lot to learn :)

I still smile at how easy it is to merge onto the interstate and look down and see you are in 3 digits mph wise.

Wow. 3,000 pages here.
I guess I tried searching, but not much luck.

Has anyone put in better DRLs? The tri-bars are so dim even when everything is off (which should be their brightest setting)...

Today I forgot how to parallel park and fucked up another wheel. I go 10+ years without messing up a wheel, to curbing two in 3 weeks. This one is so much worse. 😡

Is that a tire gouge there too?

2 day detail routine completed, new wheel/tire combo was delivered but the lugs were forgotten, double coat ceramic waxed the wheels, ordered Gorilla small diameter lugs, swapped the center caps, got the wheels on the car, shined the tires, and adjusted the pressure.

Went from OEM PP1 setup to a 19x10 square with 285/35/19 tires. I expected something aggressive but it almost looks “monster truck-ish” to me now. Alignment is correct and everything is as it should be but definitely a different look.
