Not so much. I'd rather get tangled in an electric fence than spend money on tires. For some unknown reason, I just HATE to spend money on tires. Any tires. For any vehicle. An alternator, ok. A battery, ok. Belts, brakes, filters, gaskets, seals, radiators, you name it, no problem. Tires just chap my a :censored:

Track days in my Mustang made me love buying track tires.
Expensive? Yes, but the adrenaline rush was unreal.

I definitely don't enjoy a lower checking balance but I do LOVE hoping on the connie with a brand new set of PR4's.

I will get to experience both feelings in the near future.

You just have the wrong car. :)

Or you could go to the "darkside" and then they would cost the same.

Paying 3 times as much for a tire for my motorcycle as I do for a tire for my car and having it last 1/3 as long.

Maybe you should go with the car tire option on the bike.   ;D  Okay, come on, someone had to say it.

Call me crazy but I ain't gonna put car tires on my motorcycle because they would last longer. I'm also not going to put motorcycle tires on my car.

After purposely not tuning in until after the first 5 laps to miss the idiocity of the pre race circus show, interrupted by maybe the most per capita commercials ever run on TV in that amount of time, and DW's stupid green flag yell, and the usual third lap crash, I watched almost 3 hours of kinda decent racing, only to throw the clicker at the TV and turn it off in disgust at yet another Daytona last lap ginormous crash, at that point, I didn't care as I will most likely never watch another Daytona 500 again. Is this really something people actually pay to go watch?

Worked outside all day today in short sleeves, maybe 40F? But with the heavy snowpack it was REALLY bright, I needed sunglasses.

So, the brightness and/or the warmth made you crazy and annoyed? Or maybe it was the working outside?    ;)
