Quiet night...however if I'm in need of a good laugh I can always rely upon the tags, Dave's signature, or Mondo's avatar.

So what happened to your car? There was talk it broke at the track? Burned through a set of tires already? Also racing perhaps? Most Impressive.

I pulled around to my office and parked outside right next to the stairs. Ran inside to get something hopped back out, put it in gear and slipped the clutch and the steering wheel was still turned hard left since I pulled around the stairs and went 3-5mph into the pole there.
Went to body shop today and things will be fixed here in about 2 weeks.

I got a new set of wheels and tires so I need these mounted. The stock tires have plenty of life.

Thanks for the recommendation for mounting Curt, he did a good job.

no wonder you did so poorly in the TDI Cup series. you can't even back out of a standard parking job.

Thanks, because clearly having no brakes in two races, missing the front left wheel in another and blow suspension in another deffinately proves your statement.

At least Eric tried. Wheel to wheel is a tad tougher then running over cones in a parking lot.

But do you really have to pay to race in the TDI cup? Thats kinda lame.
