I had been to the track and had not yet replaced my spare tire etc, so I had all that extra space. I bought two big packs of TP and some extra stuff. I had plenty of room for a change.

I come to Anoka a few times each month for work. We also have a family farm up in Battle Lake.

Anoka is about 25 min from here.. I had not heard of Battle lake, I see it's in the boonies, looks like prime snowmobile country. We have ridden north of Alex before but I don't think ever that far north.

This is the only reason I'm thankful for living in Phoenix, where it's a grid and everything is straight line. Tire wear is minimal.


Not near as fun, but it's a trade off I guess.

Ordered some test pipes yesterday. Now before I get flame on these, I got them from top speed and its really just trial to see how it sounds. If I like them, they'll stay.. if I don't, well they'll be out of my sight asap. I will post sound clips and pics to show the forum in case someone wants to potentially buy them.

I'm at 20k on my rears and have 5/32 left on the tread. Plus I found out recently that they are wearing completely evenly...

If it wasn't my DD, I might think about it.

I'd like to take some classes first at Bondurant before I just throw myself and my car out on a track.
