I was going through some old pictures on my hard drive.

I know I need stiffer rear torsion bars because most of the weight removed from the car came off the front, but I think I might need something more than the 22mm anti-roll bars as well. Or at least set them stiffer.

I got the slammed look going on if you look from the outside of the turn.

Compare to this:

911S rear turning in to apex by Max_911S_fahrer, on Flickr

911S downhill, in shadow by Max_911S_fahrer, on Flickr

I also can now see why there are all those spider cracks in the paint on that fender.

I'm stoked about both. The tires are nearly as quiet as the Michelin mxm4 and twice as sticky. The iPad is just fun

Hee hee. I am at McDonald's. I told my son he could pick anywhere to eat for his birthday. He is my junk food junkie. My other son would have picked the salad bar restaurant. Funny how they are so different.

Saturday is the big birthday party. At a jump house. It's awesome. The kids jump around like maniacs for two hours and they pass out when they get home.

Yeah, but I bet your dog park doesn't have "cosmic glow" where they turn out the lights and turn on the black lights and you get a glow in the dark necklace.

Nope, no black lights. Just a bunch of old farts and hyper dogs
