i am seriously considering putting the summer wheels back on the 951. there is no snow. there is no snow in the forecast. the snow tires make driving the 951 really frickin' scary. however, if it does snow, the summer wheels are completely useless....

anyway.... i can't wait to get my hands on that rifle. 308 ammo is cheap. its gonna be fun.

Sorry for the repost.

they only showed up here, at the grocery stores, recently. i had to buy a culture, when i started growing them. if they'd had them at the grocery stores, i could have made my own culture.

speaking of cultures, i have a shiitake culture i started. i need to start some shiitakes.

217 HP, factory ('S' versions have ~250).

however, i have autothority stage 2 chips for the 'S' version, i have removed about half of the interior, and i now have a 'race' exhaust. i am guessing about 270 HP and about 2800 lbs.

thanks, vas. it is a bit rough (okay, a lot rough), paint chips and such, and the interior is stripped. however, it is my hotrod, and mechanically sound. i've driven an R8 and i think my ride is comparable (obviously, it isn't going to go 190+ MPH, but i bet it can do north of 160 MPH). scary fast. like i've stated before, it scares me more than the ducati.
