So, I have decided to skip Exposed this year and will go next year. I had some things come up this weekend and need to take care of them. Can't wait to see the pics though. You guys have a good time and be safe.

those OTG's are camber shims and not just spacer shims, correct? i've always wondered how those affect the driving feel/response and how much it affects your tire wear .... any insight? i may be interested, Big Jim

they're the camber shims. I honestly dont know how bat it affects the tire wear, because i cant see under there LOL.

the handling over 80mph gets squirley. i do not recommend driving that fast either.

The handling is ok most of the time, but sometimes it got pretty interesting. I didn't have them on long enough on mine to tell how bad they will wear the tires, but obviously they will wear the insides out alot faster.

Would anyone be interested in custom made license plates? Not like a state plate but a black or white background with your user name or other phrase on it? I will post pictures up tonight. I picked one up to use for when I take pictures of my car so I dont have to worry about blurring the plate and when I'm parked at car shows. The guy I had make mine said he could do up to 10 letters/characters. Let me know!

So far he can only do black or white plates. He is only limited by the vinyl that he has on hand, if you don't mind waiting for a special color to come in I'm sure he could do that. I can get a color list from him if you want. I know I'm gonna be rocking mine at Exposed! IIRC he said $15 for the plates. The cost comes down to the complexity of the design and how much time it takes to convert it to a language the plotter understands.
Hopefully I can get up and out to Cranberry to leave there by 7am. If not I will meed up with yinz guys there.

I gotta chage my picture since I'm not @ spitzer anymore.
Do any of you know a "reasonable" place to get my MR2 painted? It's gotta be good but not $3000 either. ???
