I'm about to my next oil change. I should start looking now for the damn oil. Also I was hesitant to say this at first but I'm terrible at keeping secrets sooooo... I bought new tires and wheels from tirerack and they should be here Tuesday, then I can put them on Wednesday for my day off. I'm hoping to do some in-depth tests about how much difference lights wheels actually make.

Went with the RPF1s and the #1 rated all-season they had, which was also coincidentally the lightest one they had. 27lbs total wheel+ tire vs my current 36-38lbs(I have 3 different brands on the car now). I'm going to be doing an Hptuners 0-60 log before and after and comparing mileage and handling.

Been thinking of ditching the SS/SC springs for a while now but I need to be careful because the train track I drive over every day are a bitch. They tore the exhaust off my Nova when I had it.

I have to put my hazards on if i have to go over a track. Ill take a different way if i know the area but usually i get caught off guard and have to crawl over them in first gear lol.
