1 day down and it's a humbling experience riding with an instructor. These cars are way beyond my novice skills but it certainly makes me want to seek out local track days.
Made it out here but the drive from LV to SM in a Camary in need of a serious balance sucked. The on-site condo is pretty nice and hearing cars tear around the track from the balcony is a bonus!
I always did the typical Blizzak/X-Ice on my last car but we just don't get significant snowfall to justify a true winter/snow tire. In a pinch, we have an SUV. I have the Contis ready to be installed next week after a trip to Spring Mountain.
I plan on swapping out the OEM PS for an a/s tire. Don't need a winter tire because we are in SW OH, we get maybe 3 days of significant snow. I work from home but office is only a few miles away and have an SUV if needed
Conti are better in rain, Michelins handle better. Price for a set is...
Briefly when I couldn't get an allocation (4BW) up here in OH. They were pretty responsive but I was able to get an allocation and place an order right after I talked to Sewell. I think a lot of people in this forum have had positive outcomes with them. They charge MSRP and I think they drop...
Sewell Cadillac usually gets allocations but they are in Texas. I'm not sure if there is a similar dealer in SoCal. I don't think this is the final year for the 5BW since they just did a minor facelift and interior revision. The 4BW's days may be numbered.
Our youngest is away at school and always drives my car when he's home. He did promise me a nice car in exchange when he makes it big! Having the kids home (and killing it at school) is all the Xmas gift I need.
My dealership (SW OH) is just a general GMC dealer. I had them do an oil change and the update at the same time and everything was completed within a few hours without issue. The techs were all really surprised I let my 18 yo drive it there for service.
Civic Type R or the Acura version? I've heard he Corolla GR is a lot of fun but Toyota has denied some warranty claims for tracked cars. I would think the M2 would be a great choice.
The original NSX would go through tires so quickly that I think Honda/Acura reimbursed owners. I'm not sure if they actually changed the suspension/alignment/toe setting but the cars were going through rear tires within 5000 miles.
When went in to order ours, the sales manager was busy. They just tossed us the keys to an A10 4BW (only Blackwing available) and asked we be back within 30 minutes or so. They didn't ask for an ID or insurance.
I have loved Mustangs since I was a kid. Now I feel way too old for them. I bought my kids a Civic Si and I feel silly driving that as well. We do have a dealer right down the road that sells 800HP Mustangs for $50K though. Lebanon Ford
