Woke up this morning to a flat tire. Ran over a staple last night going to 7-11 for Kodiak. Autozone for cheap lighter powered air pump. Worked good enough to drive 20 minutes to Intersport. Tire is trash, ordered pair of new rears. Damnit. Bad start.
Dropped it off with Charlie Murphy at Intersport in Tysons Corner, Virginia today. Seems car has a bent rear tie-rod. So ordered new ones and tomorrow going on lift to adjust suspension similar to my GT3. Ordered 2 sets BBS and 3 sets R6. Also had delivered from OGRacing new PFC slotted front rotors and 2 sets all around pads PFC 08 - went on car today. All fluids flushed/new.
Went over to Ryan's mansion, got the tour and his BBS/R6 since I don't have any BBS yet. Thanks Ryan (too bad you have to work, really would have enjoyed chasing you around VIR this weekend).
From OGRacing picked up a GoPro video camera. Since all our **** is in Florida we got new helmets, gloves and shoes. From Walmart got an iPhone holder so I can run Harrys Lap Timer and 4 memory cards for GoPro. Then a trip to Sears - jacks, stands, tool kit, compressor, etc. etc. etc. Stupid AMEX did a security "hold" - had to call to confirm all the charges - PITA.
On tooltopia I ordered another big torque wrench $351... then hours later it hit me!!!!!! Fauk! Changed order at BBS - switched to 5-lug!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow will place Suncoast order for 5-lug conversion kit. No more center lock!!!!

I told Gavin that I will be hauling both my GT3 and GT3RS in the rig and he is welcome to use one in the Advanced run groups as Sly runs in next next group down (less advanced?). I will put Gavin in the GT3 and me in RS and try my damnedest to keep up with Gavin!!! I dont think 1" of rubber and 15hp is enough though.
