Re: OT but you guys have good taste

LOL, but Mike, the dealer owes them to me. I may as well take them ;) Just bought my wife a Windstar so I thought I could get something I wanted. Every time we went to make a deal on a car I liked, she gave me the evil eye. I finally just went with a practical car. '98 Kia with 24K miles and 10yr. 100K warranty for $5500. Well, at least it has a woodgrain dash and nice JVC 550 cd/cass/radio/equalizer. Her idea of giving in is letting me add a spoiler if I insist on it (for my mid- life crisis). The Porsche 914 I wanted was out of the question because (she said) I couldn't take the kids. (Isn't that what the Windstar is for?) And besides, I might actually have fun with it. Funny, she loved all my sports cars and motorcycles when we were dating. -- Slot Tweaks & Reviews www.slottweak.com In article <T_BQ5.204251$[email hidden]>, "Mike Barlow" <[email hidden]> wrote: > if you had a sports car, or at least something other then a 4 door > sedan, I'd go with #149.

The wheel cover man (wheelcoverman.com) is coming by on Friday. I have to pick out some new ones by tomorrow. I narrowed it down to a few. Look at these pics and pick 1 or 2 that look good and let me know. I've numbered them.

if you had a sports car, or at least something other then a 4 door sedan, I'd go with #149. Being a 4 door sedan (family car) I'd save my money. All these wheels are nice but, in my opinion, you need a car to match the wheels. I'd like to get some wheels for my Geo Storm, But, It's a Geo Storm! ;-) GTX_SlotCar wrote in message ...

Go for none. Those fancy wheelcovers are a real frame-rate killer! "GTX_SlotCar" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:QSHQ5.461$[email hidden]...

I opted for the low frame rate with my car.

The textures for the woodgrain dash dropped my frame rates so I have to drive in bumper cam view ;-) -- Slot www.slottweak.com Tweaks & Reviews Mark Lee <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:T6IQ5.9278$[email hidden]... > Go for none.

Jason, you should switch off html-mode, so anybody is able to enjoy your post.

OMG, that does look rather bad :-( Sorry about that. I had someone email me about that, but it didn't register (in my head to change something) until now. Jason.
