Finally got the locking lug nut off that I lost the key for. I put the key in a 'safe' place. God knows it must be safe, wherever it is...

So that led to:

New Muteki SR35 lug nuts in blue (not our first choice, but they were available right now)
post-track day tire rotation
popping off the stupid chrome center covers from the wheels
Berk Dual Tip muffler delete

Any other automagic tranny owners out there with a muffler delete? In manual shift mode there is this glorious pop from the exhaust between up-shifts. And of course the symphony of auto-blip downsifting means I will now get 11 miles per gallon...

pics and vids to follow as soon as we finish chapter 3 of my wife's dissertation.

nah usually stripes on a car are ugly unless its a muscle car for some reason it suits the body lines but sometimes certain racing stripes can compliment an import but 90% of the time it doesn't compliment the body lines in this case its not 100% tasteful but at least for me it doesn't hinder on the looks of the car.

Thank you for making me piss my pants. I didn't even watch the video, it just lives on in my head...

And on the subject of the stripes, I think I actually like these ones, even though they went out of style before I put them on my '95 Probe - in '95. Something to do with all the other little stickers between the stripes? It's unique at least, and I can always respect unique.

First time ever -- took 3 passengers in the car. Two smaller girls in the rear seats, and my friend and I up front. Very cramped, and no one was really comfortable, but it can be done for short distances if there's no other choice.
