I gave auto-x another chance last weekend. It bonked pretty hard, and I’ve been reflecting all week as to why I had such a terrible time. Oddly enough, the best part was actually the drive up and back and spending time with people who I don’t see very often. Auto-x itself was terrible. It may have been the course, and […]

Try Again


I’ve found my readership keeps expanding and expanding, and now, a lot of you are not fellow enthusiasts but just acquaintances and friends of all sorts.

More Shoes


Bridgestone LOG Fin’s anyone? I’m shopping hard for some winter shoes… and am constantly frustrated by what’s available.  No one on any message board even thinks of putting 16’s on their GD.  I want to step down to 15’s.  There’s also mad conflicting information about fitment issues with 4-pot brakes.  Some say that most 16″ wheels won’t even fit… others […]
