I work super close by there! If I'm not mistaken, I think some old lady crashed her BMW into the Binny's in that strip mall this past summer. She started an alcohol fire of some sort

I don't know where else to post this, Chicago seems the closest.
This summer in Bloomington-Normal I lived at an apartment complex with a guy with a Ultramarine FR-S with white rims and a shocker sticker on the window, amongst other rice-looking stickers.

I never said anything to him because I wasn't in love with the twins this summer like I am now.

Now I just have to wait 2 more years until I can afford my own.

Haha, no, just wanted to post to see if anyone on here knows him. I've moved back to NEPA and I don't know anyone else who is really into the twins.

That Binny's has a good selection.

I was buying a new driver that day from Golfsmith.

I assume its best to wait till after winter to toss an exhaust and do any work to the motor, right? From a $ standpoint, I need to rebuild the motor in my race bike, 14:1 compression and a V-Twin don't really last more than 20 hours without a total teardown... so my wallet probably should wait till after winter too.

What up! Picked up a manual 10-series in Libertyville last week, and just threw on some winter rims/tires. I live in Palatine! Sad to see the summer tires go away so soon, but I'm looking forward to some parking lot fun once it really snows. =D

If anyone is interested, there's a WR Blue Pearl BRZ at McGrath Honda. I was leaving work and saw it and was like, "who, what why would you trade for a Honda!?"

Is there a store/shop around the NW Suburbs that carry cone seat lug nuts for the BRZ? I searched my local Autozone but they don't have it in stock and it's minor emergency.

Thanks. I got a new set from O'Reilly and used the hammer and socket trick to get the one off that was stuck on there.
