Re: I BEElieve...

It was a lose lose situation for me and the bees. I did not want to end up in the paper. Asian man killed. Stung multiple times by swarm of killer bees trying to rescue his truck. :cry: If I could have become a bee I would have told them to move just a few feet away in the field. :king: Sort of like...

Re: Cougar Replacement

I'm not a fan of the G35, but the 350z is still in the picture. You do realize a 350z has less room in the trunk than a Miata, right? :lol: :roll: Yeah... I guess I've talked myself out of that guideline. But I don't want a Miata for the same reason as a G35 and a Mustang, just don't like the looks...

Re: El Toro ProSolo Videos

Not much adjustability for karts. Seat position is fixed. I use the steering wheel spacerto bring the steering wheel a bit closer. Angled to tilt the steering wheel down a bit. (This is just my reason for using the spacer.)
