Their speeds today are pathetic. Its very inconsistent here. Sometimes I can pull 15mbps down. Today Ill be lucky to hit 1mbps down.

The site isn't run by my company either, not that the speeds would be any better if they were

Its was just at 49% and showing 1.5hrs left, but I cancelled it. Its killing my speeds for everything else that I need to do. Ill upload it when I get home.

If that weren't originally directed towards me, I'd definitely make a penis joke

Im what you kids call a "square"
I'm with you on this one Morgan. I've only had beers and never done any type of drugs. I too have had problems with alcoholism in my family.

I swear if you weren't on the opposite coast, we'd be best buds or something lol

Meese.

Shoulda told that bish all about how the flat-4 layout allows for perfect weight distribution and one of the lowest centres of gravity. Then she woulda been mindblasted.

Sound kinda sucks, but thats before the resonator was replaced. The GoPro isn't picking up the drone unfortunately. Watch in HD.

Second. That was actually the first time I was able to chirp with these tires

It does sound great, but the drone was annoying. Its much better now. Im probably going to wait until next week to do more videos. Being a holiday weekend, the cops are out in full force.

Tyler - I just got the email too

in the video you can hear the drone, and it sounds a bit deep but barely noticeable since you have the camera inside the car...






In for better videos and on/off topic discussion...

Yea, but the mic on the GoPro isnt picking up the really deep frequencies that made it so unbearable.

Thats the TRD kit. Its not available in the states but there are rumors it will be coming. I like the sides, but the rest is ok. I really like the Nur kit, minus the park bench spoiler. But Im waiting until after SEMA to decide. Unfortunately thats 2 months away
