I bet I'll be able to get half way through the summer with what I have left on mine now.

Nitto NT05 have TW of 200, that's what i use for DE. Nitto NT01 have TW of 100. star specs have better wet traction than NT05 but i've haven't had issues driving on NT05 in pouring to the track, even at 1/3 threads left.

as for flu, i was watching the news last night and they were saying this was one of the worse season, lots of people have died.

then i woke up this morning and the wife said my son wasn't felling well. i toke his temperature and it was 103.5*, i took him to the pediatric hospital immediately. it was packed there. after waiting for 1.5 hours and he threw up a couple times there, they finally diagnosed him. turns out he just has strep. so relieved it wasn't flu.

yeah im in the same boat. been wandering all over the hospital the past two weeks, dont have a ton of positive flu patients in house but a ton coming in/out of the ER. Ive been home sick since thursday with some other virus that seems to be going through the staff only...sore throat and not much else, no fever...swabbed negative for flu and strep luckily.

my friend that works at CVS set a new store record giving 69 flu shots on thursday. scary how many people never got one to begin with.
