They just handed me the plates and I took care of it myself. The front bracket has a home in the trunk, my second plate is under my floormat, just in case I park at a meter downtown (ticket from the meter maid if no plate).

Must say I'm pretty ripped from mounting those heavy stockers 3 times this spring (stupid snow).

Parker- what's the helmet requirements at MMP. Some something regulation thing something. Open face FTW. Think I found one for about $150...

PS - what size is yours? Fit nice. May just have to steal yours...

Gotta jump on Tirerack and order the tires and TPMS. ALMOST THERE GUYS, just a little bit longer.

Yea but of those 5 processes he said we are only on 1 (Prime). I thought he sent them in for finishing weeks ago?

I am guessing at least two - three weeks, and now I have $1400 dollar tires collecting dust in my garage

Oh well they will be siiiick wheels.

That's a good tip to keep the front plate under the mat - thanks Goonski!

I'm not sure what size my helmet is, but I prefer my closed face since you have to run windows down. That way my eyes don't go all dry. Regulation is snell2000

SLCGoonski · 06-20-2008, 04:43 PM

just tell her....."honey the helmet is for when I cut the grass. I got hit in the head by a rock last time I mowed. I don't want to die and leave you all by yourself"

This works every time
