Good idea.

Not with the tires you have! Did you change out the Coopers yet?

thats a hot max, anyone notice what kind of brakes?
The name of the guy that ownes that Maxima is Daniel (crewchief264), and the front brakes were Wilwood calipers with drilled and slotted rotors. You need that braking power when pushing 14psi through the VQ.

actually i just mapquested it, i take 80/90 to cleveland, 71 south to columbus, and 70 west to indy

640 miles, 10 hours according to this...maybe i need a road trip
I used to drive that way all the time when I was driving back to KS with my wife (she went to Colgate). It's a very scenic drive until you get the the portion of 90 in Ohio. 71S isn't bad though. I'd say 8.5 hours is more accurate from Syracuse. Depends on the road conditions for sure.

well ive twice driven the trip out to north dakota for school, i agree that 90 in ohio isnt the nicest thing, and theres tons of cops

8 and 1/2 hours isnt bad at all though, thanks for the better-than-mapquest time estimation...id forgotten your wife went to colgate, i remember you posting about coming up here

Am I the only one that's concerned with the fact that Jesda's doing 140 - but taking pictures at the same time?

No, I made a point of bringing it up in the last chat. They gave some weak *** excuse like she left really quickly....
