Yes indeed, lets get all that Christmas shopping done now, so there will be no need for Black Friday.

When I saw Spooky, it made me think of those care free younger days when I worked on the "Spooky" Blown Fuel Flat Bottom.

Anyways, happy October everybody. My birthday is this month...yay.

I was thinking I could move these to the back and get at least 1000 more....its the fronts. Only rotated one time at 20000 miles they now have 45000 miles
