All ready for Hurricane Laura...

Car washed and put away.

...then took down two hazardous trees. I hope we are ready for this.

Thoughts and prayers my friend, for you and all in Laura's path.

We had a close pass from Douglas a couple of weeks ago. The anxiety of protecting family (#1 priority), home, property, company assets (boats) and cars can get a bit overwhelming.

The [lack of] center rings on that tree are crazy, good thing you caught that.

Be safe and well.

BTW.... your ZLE looks very sexy all soapy and naked!

Thank you all... it looks like we have just dodged this one on the clean side.

Prayers to those in Louisiana and East Texas. This is NOT going to turn out well.

Those tires succumbed to an honorable death.

Are you still running 3Rs on the road circuit?

Yes, I love the 3Rs. so much so I wish my PS4s were worn out so I could put 3Rs on the 2nd set of wheels too. That way I have extras at the track.


....aaaandddd this didn't go so good yesterday!!!

Manager inspected the wheels before so no issues there. They immediately said they would get a new wheel.

The tech tried to say it was like that when he took it off and probably a rock ding while I was driving it there.

This is simply a dropped tool or something like that. Direct hit.

Dang! Sorry to see that. A new wheel is in order for that type of damage. You're right, definitely not a rock chip.

I fear that every time I have tires replaced.

I agree on the PS4s, there is a huge performance drop off. IMHO, a noticeable compromise to the ZLEs capabilities.

Be well and enjoy your new rubber!
