haha, awesome pics!

robb called me yesterday to tell me bout this & my response to him was
"didnt you learn the first time?"


i didnt realize this many people were rolling out or id have tagged along




also, if you used one of those "fix a flat" cans you may want to have the tire dismounted & cleaned. what happens is only a portion of the slime actually hardens to seal the puncture leaving behind a few grams of moving goo in the tire that can upset the balance. this can be difficult to diagnose because the liquid spreads out & stabilizes at speed, but a bump or jolt that upsets that fluid in the tire throws it out of whack & you have a out of balance tire/wheel until that stuff re-settles. it is also more noticable on cold mornings when the car has sat long enough for the goo to settle in the bottom of the tire

Oh come on!!! Its a rally car man!!!!!!!!!! Its like those guys that buy the pickup trucks....put a lift kit on it and the dirt tires and it never comes of the asphalt road...

The Evo has to see dirt like that at least once in its life...mine had to wait 46k miles to see it....just wrap her up all the way and she will be fine...

I hear what you are saying, but Andrea's Evo is new and we are not about to go f***-up the paint.
