I'm going...obviously. I'm driving up this year though, so no rental car for me! Although I think I'd rather drive a rental vette than my car any day because I don't have to replace the tires on a rental.

Yeah, about half the places require you to be 25 or older. The other half let you rent, but you have to pay more (and are still usually 21 or older).

I actually didn't opt for the insurance on the vette because the insurance was more than the rental...which was already not cheap. Although, I don't recommend not getting the insurance if you are beating on it. Everytime Greg got in the car I was nervous as hell because the rental was in my name, and on my credit card. Luckily they never charged me anything more than the rental rate.

Becky, if you recently quit smoking, its likely the reason for your cold.

When I quit smoking last year, I got a horrible cold that would not go away for weeks, I was hacking up some really nasty phlegm, and I had a barking cough that brought fear into the hearts of small children.

I went to the doctor, and he said to just ride it out.

Ice racing is pretty big here. I've seen racing on Lake Mille Lacs, and Ive also been to the races in Ashland on Lake Superior.

My favorite part is, they leave the track open afterward, so you can come back the next day and drive on it by yourself. I've spent many an hour sliding around on them, its endless fun with snow tires.

Ice racing is pretty big with the Subaru guys around here. A lot of people have dedicate ice cars, while others just use rally cars. I used to have videos of a friend doing wheelies with his Porche 911 rally car. He had home made studded tires with hundreds of sharpened bolt protruding from them.

whats up Noah?

I missed the story on what happened to your G? Subi is nice, already has a turbo so you just have to figure out how to add more fuel, more boost and get out more exhaust. Cobb makes a hand held that give you 50 more hp right??
Long story short, The Subie is a lot faster than the G35. The G is gone.

Cobb accessport is good, but when that time comes, I'll get a protune.

Keep telling yourself that. Take a look at the specs of the '09. It has a little bit more "out of the box" than the older models.As it sits stock right now, it is pulling 238HP at the 4 tires (Mustang Dyno), and a lot lighter than the G.

Minimum rental age is 21; age differential charges and certain exceptions may apply.

I just got this email. I don't even know this guy.For short people:

This message was sent to: FriendFrom: Gary Strong

Message: Dear Friend,

As you probably know height is a very sensitive issue in our society. Some people would not agree to this statement but as a general rule, the shorter you are the more importance you give to your height. It's no secret that people are visual creatures. We are attracted to beautiful things and height contributes to making us more appealing.

Those that don't understand how important height is are generally the ones that are above average height. That means they simply can't understand what it feels like to lose opportunities just because of being a few inches shorter.

So many strive to grow taller and only a few experts know the real secrets to gain some extra inches. For years companies have been selling useless height increasing products with the promise of growing taller. Well, not anymore! We are going to show you the secret ways of increasing your height easily and permanently.

Here's just a little sample of what you will uncover...

Learn why your body stops growing and most importantly what can you do to grow taller at virtually any age...

Learn how to predict your genetic height in the most accurate way possible at any age...

Learn why the Netherlands that were a very short population years ago are now the tallest in the world. Uncover their secrets and how you can you use it for additional height...

Increase your own HGH (Human Growth Hormone) level up to 300% using scientifically proven amino acids...

Discover the top most common things that may be stunting your height growth without you even knowing...
