This is an X5 site in name, but an automotive site in general, we should all keep that in mind. If all we have to tlak about is the current and future X5 models, we're going to run out of topics very quickly.

just my .02 ....
quite a heated topic I'm really following.

"Enough talk; let's race!"

Yes, but AutoXer's, BLine's, and SoccerJunky's rides are no slouches, either! As for J: well, he would probably give us a slight head start, .

Imo, we're doin good in diversifying away from just X5s. And compared to some threads in the Lounge, or not, our automotive discussions are generally very tame.

Do I have to run across the track and jump in, or did they stop
that jogging start?!

I gotta find a set of replacement tires: my oem's are nearly bald
in front. Rears are tolerable, but close to the wear bars.

Goodyear has had the F1 Supercar non-run flats on BO since
winter. I'm getting desperate, but I really want those GY F1s.

The sprinting start was retired, you're good to sit in the car at the start

That sux about the GYF1's, I guess I'll have to keep an eye on Tire-Rack for them in case I get a flat or something before i need to replace all 4. Thanks for the heads up. (I can't put the EMT's on my Z)
