There is a lot of food within a very short walk from where we meet, so lets work it out there so as not to confuse people...

That's fine. I just know I'm going to be hungry, and I'll have one of my friends with me.

I went to alignment school years ago, found out that camber alone doesn't cause tire wear. Toe is the only condition that initiates tire wear.

If your fronts went south in 30 days, toe has to be involved in some form. It can happen through bump steer, worn parts, aggressive driving, and so on.

So look over your suspension for things that might induce a toe (in or out) condition.

Sure don't want to see you dishing out such big bucks on tires in that short period of time.

Hope that helps...

I was a bigger fan of the other waitress. And why is your ex tagging along with you to meets? I understand having a girl there and all, but if they are your ex that usually means no sex for you, and if you're not getting sex from them then what is their purpose?

But yeah, had I not just started a relationship I would have walked out with either a slap across the face or a phone number one. hahaha

lol....I'm not gonna say a word! I liked both but the one thats name was alyssa, thats who I'm talkin about but I'd put it to both of them. Anyhow the reason she came is because she didn't have anything to do. I might try and bring another girl next time I dunno tho.

LOL that's cool rolf keep us guessing. I guess I'm getting old, those girls looked like they should be home with their parents to me. Hey Glitch when did you ever shun a free slap across the face...

I got my pump from Summit with Holley regulator for around $80, about 18 months ago.

Bob, you and I both know you're hitting it. lol.

And as far as the slap across the face, I'm normally all about it. This time however, I fear that my girlfriend might know far too many people in Fort Wayne since that she is from there, and word travels far too fast. The slap across the face isn't what I was fearing most. lol The lack of sex if she found out, on the other hand. haha

Just kidding. Kind of. My girlfriend is wonderful, and I don't think I could ask for a better one. It isn't worth risking it over a random girls number.

Oh, my ex and I broke up about 7 months ago. I took about 6 months off from relationships. Longest it had been in six years. Most time I had went prior to that was two months, so I figured a long break would do me nicely. It did. Now its time to give this girl a try. So far the past month is more promising than any other girl I've been with. We'll see though.

And are you going to be at the next meet in two weeks?
