    Moto GP not returning to Indy

    I'm more disappointed for the Speedway losing another venue than for Moto GP, but regardless it's not welcoming news. MotoGP Will Not Return to IMS in 2016 September 11, 2015 | By IMS Following eight years of delivering world class motorcycle racing, the Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix will...

    Plasti dip from Ohio

    Met a guy who [had a 91 NSX] and was sporting one of the worst plasti dip jobs I've ever seen (never seen a GOOD one). We were in Columbus, Indiana two weekends ago and he was a participant in a car show. Orange with overspray everywhere. He said it was originally Sebring Silver, and he was...

    Just bought an 07 Audi RS4. . .winter wheel and tire package?

    Well, technically I'm picking it up Monday. I know I'll need a winter set, but I'm not sure what route to go. There are 18" (down from the stock 19") replica wheels on ebay for $600. What about tires? I've had Blizzaks before and liked them. However, is there a better option? More...

    New TaylorMade RocketBallz Clubs

    I've been holding out for years to replace my circa 1994 Titleist DCI Irons. I finally bit the bullet and went all new this year. After hitting nearly every club (Driver, Fairway Wood, Hybrid, and Iron) available for 2012, I settled on the TM. For those of you in the market, these clubs are...

    WiFi Network Names

    I won't pretend I'm creative. I googled 'funny wifi names', and found a bunch of good ones. Landed on 'FBISurveillanceVehicle3'. Love it!!!! About once a month I'll change the number. Anyone else have the itch to mess with your neighbors?

    Headphones

    I've been struggling with which headphones to ask for from my wife for Christmas. I want On-Ear or Over-the-Ear style, and have already bought and returned the Bose due to poor sound quality (IMO). I've read tons of reviews on the Bowers & Wilkens P5's. They seem to be about the best out...

    Ordered a 2012 Lexus RX 350

    Ordered this for my wife. I wanted a white exterior and black interior, as many of us have come to love. There was only 2 in the United States!!! Why is this combo so rare? I love it, and can't figure out why it's not more popular. I guess it's better for us, since it makes it more...

    Lexus LX Series

    I wanted to share a success story I had that I believe every member here could replicate if they so desire. We bought our 2003 LX in October 2009. I searched for months for the vehicle, and ultimately landed at Tom Wood Lexus in Indianapolis. It was a 2003 with Navigation and Night Vision...

    Stansberry Research Thread Deleted

    The reasoning for deleting the thread was listed as 'alarmist rhetoric'. So was it the facts that the gentlemen laid out, or was it the events he is projecting?

    Experience in Flat Roofs?

    I'm embarking on the journey of replacing the flat roof on my home. It's a particularly stressful experience due to the cost of $45k, but even more stressful due to the ramifications of something being done incorrectly. Does anyone have experience with these roofs and the materials involved...

    To All Prospective Owners

    In 2005, I had some extra room for a toy, and started searching for an NSX. I bought one, and owned it for about 13 months. Loved it, but wanted to try something else. There were so many cars that I wanted to drive and experience, that I just had to try them. So I sold the NSX and bought the...

    Ticket for 5 mph over

    Okay, so the first ticket in 8 years was 3 months ago. 84 in a 70 in my daily driver coming home from work. I deserved that one, although it was passing a semi that wouldn't get out of the damn left lane. BUT, I did it - fine. Present tense: So I take off from the light. Didn't break...

    The Toy Barn

    Just wanted to post a short note in addition to my thread in the off topic section regarding my new ride. I picked it up from 'The Toy Barn' in Dublin, Ohio. I've dealt with dealer after dealer, and these guys were 100% top notch. He took a lot of time to make me feel comfortable in the...

    The Viper will be my last. . . . . .for a while. . .

    Unfortunately, the Viper comes with many preconceived notions of the owner/driver, which are very similar to those who own crotch-rockets. But I've always liked them. As such, it is now my first domestic vehicle purchase in 15 years. I swore I wouldn't do this (purchase a domestic), so my...

    Compact Home Theater Suggestion (or HTIB)

    I’m looking for a satellite speaker type home theater system in my family room, and want to spend around $1,000. I had a more elaborate 7.1 B&W home theater at my last house (sold it with the house), but I just don’t have the motivation to spend that much again. Also don’t want the larger...

    I'm really getting sick of thuggery in sports

    This guy was also kicked out of the first practice of the season for mouthing off to the head coach. Just kick him off the team for cryin out loud. These guys are given the world for free, and this is how they behave? The guy taunting him is no better. Jeesh...

    Customer Service these days. . . . . .Ugh.

    We just moved about 6 weeks ago. A large move but a small distance of only 2 miles away. If you have a few minutes, take a look at my experiences. On top of my drywaller, The Room Place, HHGregg, and my movers (somehow we had tire tracks on our pillows), the problems I had with these folks in...
