Oh btw the Northfield Inn had a good burger and the waitress was cute. Also it was cool talking with Federico about Italy,Alfa Romeo's and Aprilla scooter's.

I thought I would post some pics of my heritage (cool)

Same for me.

And the restaurant is the Northfield Roadhouse.

Thanks for showing up, Steve! I was very surprised to see you there (I didn't see your post).

All in all, it was a good day. Nobody wrecked and I didn't get a ticket! (first)

Rico, is that the 70mph scooter??

Yes, That my baby.

I still have it but I cannot run it because it was made when the gas still had lead in it.

80 cc aluminum block Malossi Racing MHR engine ported with modified head,Polini Racing exhast, MHR crankshaft, variatore malossi, rapporti malossi, malossi clutch, dell'Orto 21 carburator, and stock modified air box.

Actually, If I do the coversion I got to 78 mph. It was a straight line monster but not good in turns.

Thanks for looking guys and let me know what do you thing is a good tire for the MSP.

I will try my best and thanks for your help,

Fede

You are right.

I wonder if I should pay attention to the weight or just pic the one that I like.
They look awesome but they are 18 and he is lowered.
I will keep stock setup.

I was also looking at Kosei K1TS or the Motegi like below

Thanks for the inputs

If you're not gunna autocross it I would just go for the ones that you like and not worry about the weight so much. Yeah, they are 18's and he is also on coilovers so he has a pretty aggressive drop. Are you gunna stay with 17's then as well ? They have them in 17's but I don't know what kind of offset you need for the speed ........

By the way guys. If you have not had the opportunity to go for a ride in Bryan's WRX, you have got to do it the next time you see him in it. The acceleration is pretty much indescribable. That thing is just plain FAST !!!! He told me that 2nd gear is the best and I will tell ya, it does not dissapoint.

True, true...

 

[goldwing2000]

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure they still sell lead substitutes in auto parts stores. Also, aviation fuel is still leaded.

True, true...

If we're talking about cute girls, the one standing at the counter at the BP was pretty cute too. Not the one working, but the one standing on the outside talking to her. I definitely gave that a second overview.

 

[goldwing2000]

The one at the counter was kind of cute (way too skinny for me) but the one behind the counter was nicer and would have worked harder. (thumb)

 

[tunersteve]

Must be cuz she was younger and was in my age range. The one behind the counter was really nice though.

 

[goldwing2000]

That could be. All you young punks... (thumb)

 

[JHew84]

sounds like you guys had a great time, thats good, sorry i had to miss out on the fun ...

but heres the reason why, at least its a decent reason, right? ...

 

[goldwing2000]

You couldn't find one of those closer than 12 hours away? (scratch)

 

[tunersteve]

I think im gonna set out on a quest to find out which routes the other two groups we saw use. Maybe next year we could alternate routes if they are somewhat reasonable.

Tuner Steve ?? I would have thought if you were gunna make a name change it would be "pleasureman steve"..........(cabpatch)
