I had one of those "AH-HA!" a number of years ago;
I used to never have dedicated winter tires, and I just dealt with it (generally I ran BFG Radial TA's all year round);
I was driving a co-worker to a place to meet her boyfriend, and I had both tires blazing on a bridge deck when she turned to me and said;
"Hun, I think you need to do something about your tires"


She was right.

So I generally have a dedicated winter tire - and prior to the Cobalt, they have always been a studded tire.

 

Chudds powersports in Gimli is an Arctic Cat dealer and built up a Z1 sled. It's cats factory turbo 4 stroke that comes stock with 180hp. They ran it on the 29th and it ran a 9.41@147mph. And apparently they had huge traction problems haha. Now that's a fast sled!

 

Wow....

 

I was at San Dales as they were dyno tuning a turbo artic cat. 300hp. Sounded like hell unleashed.

 

Lol probably the same kind of sled. It's super easy to make big power with them. Guys even run meth injection!

Garret did you reserve a dyno spot for next Saturday?

 

Last i heard (last night) there was only one spot left

 

That sounds right. When I reserved my spot there were 3 left and Dustin grabbed a spot so I think the only spot left is 3:30.

 

Gotta love that sport

 

How do people not know the difference between sport red tint coat and victory red? I keep getting PM's from people with victory red cars trying to sell me their god damn spoilers

 

You caught me before my ninja edit lol. Damn you auto correct.

 

Anything is better than speed holes.

 

because most people are stupid.



sound about right?

 

This just occured to me;
Is that '09 Sport Red SS which I grabbed parts off still there?

IIRC it was a high rise car - but I could be mistaken.

It might be a bit pricey, but it's local (no shipping) and it's colour matched.

Another option might be to see if a vinyl shop can closely match your paint, and just get any old spoiler, wrap it, then install it.

 

Vinyl wrapping an entire spoiler would look like poo.

 

I would suggest that it would come down to the guy doing the wrap, and the thickness of the vinyl.

I have no doubt that Mark (aka: jrmoto) could do it so that it looked great ~ granted to do it properly, it would have to be wrapped off of the car, and if it were a high rise, it would probably need to be taken apart.

 

I get 75% off express shipping and 50% off ground shipping with fedex. Shipping costs to me is not a concern.

 

DUDE!!

you're one lucky boy!

 

I'm saying the vinyl itself wouldn't look good not the quality of work. But that's me.

 

there's huge differences in vinyl out there...

the best stuff is NOT printed, and even for the stuff they would receive in colour, there's variations therein...

You will never get that high gloss "freshly waxed" look with vinyl, but then again wrapping a part is a compromise;
the compromise being some durability, and finish appearance for cost.

 

Jon why would i wrap my spoiler in old vinyl records?

 

4 hours till that fine swill hits my lips
