i'm thinking if i go 32 - i'll def get a 720p. if i go 37... im torn. if i could get a samsung 37 1080p cheap that would be the hotness, especially since when i finally do buy a house, i could make that the main tv till i upgrade. a 32 lcd wouldnt really cut it for a living room, but a 37 would be decent for a while.

only time will see how the new one is. The ZR1 is obvious winner for handling over almost any other car out there.

Nice vid, my favorite part is the lambo style doors.

It looks like the driver was actually struggling to get the car to lose traction or drift, i wonder if the traction control was still on.

I REALLY want to go Sunday...but I will have Sam, and from attending these events in the past, it is not ideal for me to bring a 17month old out there for that long of day. I wish I could go :shrugs:

Nsxerz- If you go, you will regret not pre-registering to run in the event!!!! Srsly> It's a long day to stand around and watch people have a blast. I haven't been in 2 years, but they usually have a "practice area" that you can play around in until your class is called to run. Just run your car mang!! You won't regret it

isn't it better to be cold/tired watching someone else ram a snowbank in their car than being cold/tired and ramming your own car into a snowbank???
