Default Fighting winter blues...

Got myself a set of Kinesis F110s with Pilot Sport PS2 rubber on 'em. Still at least a month of salt and slush on the roads ahead of me, so no driving yet

Couple quick phone pics:





Bring on the summer, damnit!

rost12 - man, those wheels look great! Those are my favorite after-market wheels. Got any close-up pics of the rear quarter panel & the wheel?

I took a 1300 mile trip to Atlanta this weekend you weekday drivers can't compete with that.. . It was about 67 degrees on Friday down there.. Needless to say the top was down.

I passed a silver 996(we had a spirited run to about 121 mph) and 997s(left lane hog) on my way back today.

Cool. I'm in. I made the drive up here last week. I'm going to get the car oil-sprayed by Krown later this week and then I should be good to go. Let's shoot for a day ABOVE zero celcius though please....I can't deal with the cold anymore.
