Some say his skin has the texture of a dolphin's, and that wherever you are in the world, if you tune your radio to 88.4, you can actually hear his thoughts... all we know is, he's called the Stig.

LOL. :rofl:

That is bizarre. :hehe:

The old guy on Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson, has the funniest dayem Stig quotes. They alone are worth watching the show, as you may have gathered from the Top Gear Youtube channel.

The funny thing about Clarkson is that he's so damn tall: seeing him crammed in a car reminds me of that tall, lanky yoga master who fit himself into a 24-inch cube. :hehe:

Haha. Yeah, I'm not wealthy enough to buy one of those supercars but it is rather amazing how he fits in all of them, especially with that curly fro of his.

Seriously. Pretty soon they are going to recall 1987 Toyota Cressida. Soon after they will recall the Toyota CEO's underwear.

Check what I wrote about it in the other thread where you said you were looking for tires online.

I saw it. :victory:

I was hoping my mechanic had the equipment to mount tires, 'cause I'd buy the tires online from Tire Rack and have him do it, but alas..... :sweat:

I feel you....well when I saw the price these guys charged me for the Yokohama's it was the same exact price I found online without having to pay the shipping. Their prices are very cheap.

In any case good luck.

After one week, my front wheels are nearly black from the brake dust from those chicken shit OEM brake pads... :grumble:
