It will warm back up by the end of the week. I heard 50's. Maybe I'll put the Kumho MX's back on....


By chance, any of you guys interested in an AutoPower 6point Bolt in Roll Cage?

I ran V710s at this event in 2006. Everyone thought it was too cold for race tires. I ended up having an 8 second lead by the end of the morning runs.

Last year a Ran Hoosier A6's and took FTD. Just gotta raise the 2-step launch control to spin all 4 and warm up the tires a bit.

Pfft, go to Mt Crested Butte, CO. Far better than Vail and the other tourist trap mountains there. Lot's of Black Diamond runs if your more extreme or want to push the limits.

Ill be heading out there in a few weeks. Ill post up some pics later when I get home.


I guess if you want to ski on garbage dumps then yeah, WI has a few of them.

That sucks - I've been there.
Had mine repaired at the dealer because insurance was covering it. Cost around $450 for parts & labor.

Hmmm. Next work trip to Denver should be January timeframe. Maybe I'll check that out. I like that A-Basin stays open til June. Even then, there was stuff WAY too extreme for me. Nothing like skiing then going mountain biking in 80 degree weather the same day .

If you go to a glass company they will tell you that it costs $500-$600 and will take a week or so to get the glass......that is for Evo glass. However if you will accept Lancer glass they can do it right away and it will cost ~ $200. The difference is that the Evo glass is slightly lighter/thinner, but the Lancer glass will function the same.

I've got one of those in Silver, a true street terror.
~36mpg around town is nice though.
