I stopped badgering because I did feel like it was bordering on bullying the kid. I offered up some sincere advice and he glazed over it in one of the threads. Can't help someone that doesn't get out of their own way...fk it.
Majo, no...unf not. Only $34.49 which was why I lost.

Majo, thanks, man...I'm not really that disappointed, that auction would have caused me to do something financially that you Asian fellas would have slapped me for.

18 vs 19 inch wheels on my 07 Type S
Im very new to this community but need some help.
I know people have exhausted this issue, but I have been racking my brain for the past couple weeks cuz I finally decided to put rims on my type S.
But the question is ...
Should I ride with 255/40, 18?? or 255/35 and get the 19s??

19's will be visually pleasing but more susceptible to road feel and vibrations, more costly tires, usually more costly wheels.
18's roll smoother, cheaper tires and are generally lighter in weight overall.
I went 19 originally and dropped back to 18. I love the look...depends a LOT on the style of the wheel. A lipped 19 will look like an 18 while a spoked/concave 18 will look like a 19. Crazy shit, man...stay indoors.

The more I look at it, the more I realize how much lower to the ground the car looks on a 1" smaller diameter wheel.

^ I glanced at the headline but didn't see/read the full story. Sounds like some think Stewart did it intentionally??

Having raced a sprint car for two seasons, I can tell you its super hard, if not impossible, to see out of your peripherals in a 410, 360, or 305 sprint car. Especially with the HANS device hooked in.
Let alone, the kid who died was wearing an all black firesuit, and the track was poorly lit and it was already dark.
Terrible for everyone involved, but I don't think Tony Stewart will be racing for much longer. Either due to the investigation that will take place, emotional stress, bad PR, etc.... he just is going to get a break.
I don't think he intentionally hit the kid, though. No one would ever do that, especially in an open wheel car. The video makes it seem like he gunned it to hit the kid, but I'm betting he saw him at the last second and gunned it to try and kick the rear end out to go around him. Unfortunately, the kid was too close to the car.

Sounds like crazy stuff. I'm at work so I won't get a chance to watch the clip until later on. Unfortunate situation all around though.

Off topic...but figured I'd leave this gem here. A complaint form from a little grassroots type of parts shop online...

You guys a nucking futs if you believe every driver on that track could see that kid but Stewart, professional sprint cup nascar driver. I understand visibility is shit but if everyone and their grandma can see the kid from the stands.. How can Stewart, going 30 mph with clear visibility of the crash and turn not see him? He intended to give the kid a shave and ended up twisting him into a pretzel. Tony Stewart has always been an asshole, he just proved to be the biggest one, which hopefully will be good use in the pokey.

No.. he intended to do what he did. If he was chinky it would have been an accident, and he would have proceeded to crash into the rafters killing 20 spectators.

You know it's China because no one gave a shit when he plummeted into the hole

Damn, you make a good point, Majofo. Sad...

About China or Tony Stewart, I'll guess both
The kid was dumb, no one argues that.. and I'm sure Tony didn't mean to kill him, but he should be a man and fucking admit he was being aggressive which resulted in his death.

I'm sure people began speculating that he COULDN'T have seen him and he ran with it...
Yeah, I meant Stewart.
