Dan, why you gotta get Honda-ghey all fired up about tires again... We all know he loves his crappy NT05s.

They've been on closeout without any real price drop for over a month. I wouldn't expect to see them drop until the new tire comes out in feb.

You still have a season worth of life left in your anyways.

I gots an overstock of tires ATM

4 - 235/40/17 nt01 w/1 track day, very little wear
8 - 245/40/17 z1s (4 with less than 500 miles)
8 - 225/45/17 z1s (4 with less than 500 miles)
4 - 255/40/17 rs3 (brand new)
4 - 255/40/17 rs3 (almost beat, maybe a weekend left)

I should have enough tires to last hopefully all next year, maybe more. I'm still gonna order some 225/40/17 R6's for NASA. DE domination ain't a game, playa!

Tire rack says less than 10 left (don't know if that's by sets or tires) so I don't expect them to be available for me by March.

I've been working on domination of my garage for the last month or so and its almost finished. Reached a milestone today and finally got the sub panel energized!! I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, only a few small things left to do. Some of you have seen it before and know its nothing special, just a standard 2 car detached garage with about 300sf. It was dusty, uninsulated and had only 1 outlet for the WHOLE garage shared with one single light and it was knob and tube coming from the house! Working on cars was always a PITA. It was HOT in the summer and COLD in the winter. All that is now a thing of the past. My goal was to insulate, add wall & ceiling panels, real electric and heat/AC.

Over the summer I had an insulated 2 bay door & opener installed, that was the first step. Since that time I've done errthing myself over the last few weeks with the exception of the doors and windows I did in the fall and actually terminating the wiring in the panel, my buddy Nick did that today. Installed 4 new windows & new man door. Framed walls & ceiling for insulation, r13 on walls and double faced R19 on ceilings, installed soffit vents and gable vents, spray foamed every joist bay so its sealed, installed wood paneling on walls, dug a 1' trench (about 40') from the house to the garage and laid 1.5" conduit, taking up the pavers in the process, ran all new electric from house to new sub panel in garage (220v 60 amp service w/8 110 outlets; 3 20amp & 3 15amp & 2 30amp). installed 12 - t8 32watt shop lights, purcahsed 4000w 220v electric heater that I will install this coming weekend, 220v outlet for welder (still have to purchase welder). All in all its been a pretty big project but I can't wait for winter to hit now that I have a nice warm place to work on my cars. Compared to what I was working with before this is going to seem like professional shop with all the lights, available power and comfort I have now. I still need to do some organizing of all my tools and what not and a couple little things here and there and also I'm going to do the siding in the spring and maybe coat the floor too if I can get it clean enough.
