I'm gonna have to go with Karl on this one. If you go back to my
highschool, my parking spot last year had TWO black strips coming out of
it, as well as TWO black strips coming off the front of the speed bump.
(I used to play drag strip, and the speedbump was where I would stage. A
shallow stage actually got the rear wheels airborne for about 6 inches,
which would burn the heck out of those little Goodyear Invictas I used
to have on it.)
I still don't like those tires. I can't imagine why they needed
replacing with only 35xxx miles on them.
