Same here. Nothing major, just checking out downpipes, ordered a HID kit for my fogs (thanks for your influence, 4CEFED!) and looking at a Quaife LSD.

I think I bought the wrong car. I should be in one of these if gas prices don't shoot through the $4 mark.

My kids are going crazy, its too cold for them to play outside. No school tomorrow again! And of course, the nanny can't make it. That means another day at home, trying to work- getting nothing done. Thank God I bought beer on Monday, but our stash is running low.

fyi- wookie nice upgrade on the avatar.

The streets aren't THAT bad anymore...just turn on your DTC and you'll be fine

Honestly, I'm about 50/50 right now also...we'll see if I'm feeling like it a bit later today.

I'm starting to feel the same. I really don't want to get out there if I don't have to.

From the COBB Tuning Facebook Page:

COBB Tuning Plano
First Thursday Meet for February 3 will be canceled this month. Our parking lot is too icy to have customers walking around tonight and slipping and falling. See everyone March 3!

It wasn't too bad this morning. Less sketchy than I expected. It took me an extra 25-30 min to get to work. I drove about 40mph most of the way. My car was actually pretty clean when I got to work....sure it's gonna get messy tomorrow though.

All I gotta say is whatever my buddy brought me last night to de-ice my driveway, that ish didn't F around at all. That stuff was serious! Without it, I would still be stuck in my house.

I hate to beat a dead horse-


BMW Car Club of America Spring High Performance Driver's Education course (HPDE) at Motor Sport Ranch
April 30- May 1
But We need guys/gals to sign up for this event. This is a great event, run very well. This is THE PERFECT Opportunity to see what you and your car can do. This track has no walls or curbs, so run off does not = repair bill. Wookie and I are signed up. Cost is reasonable for what you get.

See the thread below in southwest.

or go here to register.

I corrected the link. Good question- if you have cheaper tires go for it, if not, it doesn't abuse them too much.

Same here. I loaded that new map that Rob @ Cobb had fixed for me and was only able to put about 10 minutes of driving on it Monday night. I probably won't drive it again until next Monday.
